Provisions
The best of the UK's larder, delivered straight to the boat, in time for prep.
The finest of British produce, from Cornish harbours and Somerset estates to the Highlands, chosen to your specification and brought straight to the galley.
Fish and shellfish
The catch of the day comes from the fishermen's cooperatives in the Cornish harbours, or from Billingsgate Market for yachts in London. Turbot, sole, bass and mackerel in season, scallops, crab and lobster, and native oysters from the Fal and Whitstable. Whole, filleted or portioned to your specification, packed on ice and on board by lunchtime.
Meat and game
Meat and game come directly from the estates, the best of British from Somerset to the Highlands: Scotch and Welsh lamb, native-breed beef, and grouse, partridge, pheasant and venison in their seasons. Every order is prepared by a master butcher to your cuts, from a saddle or a rack to portioned fillets, and delivered fresh or frozen, packed as you ask.
Cheese and dairy
Farmhouse cheeses from the West Country and the Midlands, with Cheddar, Stilton, Dorset Blue and Exmoor Blue among them, chosen at their best and cut to order for the boat. With them come Cornish clotted cream, English butter and cream, packed and chilled for the passage.
Fruit and vegetables
Grown in British fields and glasshouses and brought to the boat through the seasons: English asparagus from late April, strawberries and soft fruit in summer, heritage tomatoes and samphire, then apples, pears and roots through the autumn and winter. Watercress from the Hampshire valleys, herbs and salad leaves complete the order, chosen to your specification.
Bakery
Fresh French artisan bread, sourdough and baguettes, with croissants and patisserie made by hand, delivered straight to the boat from the finest local bakeries. From further afield come Italian crostini, Sardinian pane carasau and Arab flatbreads, all sourced the same day.
Wine and spirits
Champagne and the great wines of France, Italy and the New World, from the everyday to rare labels and vintages found on request. Alongside them, the best of the UK: English sparkling wine from Sussex, Kent and Hampshire, Scotch whisky, West Country gin, artisan spirits, and British beer and ale. All supplied under bond where the yacht's status allows.
