The River Thames has a wonderful way of helping you slow down.

One moment you’re casting off, and before you know it the pace of everyday life is replaced by a calmer and uninterrupted moment with family and friends.

Here, James takes the beautiful Intender 820 out for a cruise. Designed with comfort, space and effortless handling in mind, it’s a boat that invites you to spend longer on the water, whether you’re enjoying a relaxed afternoon on the Thames or planning adventures further afield.

With its adaptable cockpit, spacious seating and thoughtful design features, the Intender 820 combines practicality with luxury, making every journey feel special.

Join us for a glimpse of life on the river and discover why so many people fall in love with boating.

The water gives us so much 💙.

Moments of calm. Time with family and friends. Space to slow down, explore and reconnect with nature.

Whether it’s the River Thames, Chichester Harbour or the open sea, we never take for granted the privilege of spending time on and around the water.

This World Ocean Day, we’re celebrating the oceans, rivers and waterways that bring so much joy to so many people, while recognising the importance of protecting them for future generations.

We’re committed to playing our part. Through our partnership with , we’ve taken steps to reduce our carbon impact and, since 2024, we’ve gifted the planting of 100 trees with every new boat sold as part of our wider environmental pledge 🌱.

We believe that a love of being on the water goes hand in hand with caring for it.

Today, and every day, we’re grateful for the blue spaces that inspire adventure, support wildlife and connect us with the natural world.

From timber to tide, discover how Haines Marine crafts boats that truly stand the test of time.

Each build begins at their Norfolk shipyard, where craftsmanship, choice, and care come together in perfect harmony.

Hand-crafted, not high-volume, every Haines is bespoke — tailored entirely to you, from timber and upholstery to layout and engine specification.

With a proud British heritage dating back to 1980, Haines continues to build enduring relationships and exceptional boats. We’ve been honoured to represent them at Val Wyatt Marine since the 1990s.

Where style meets substance, every design blends elegance with performance — equally at home on tranquil inland waters or adventurous offshore routes.

View that photos below to see the story of a Haines boat — from the joiner’s bench to the open water.

And if you’d like to explore what ownership could look like right now, we currently have a selection of stunning Haines models available — all details can be found via the link in our bio.
