Family & loved ones attended ash scattering

Family & loved ones attended ash scattering offers family and loved ones the option to view the scattering services on one of our boats. With our Family & loved ones attended ash scattering, the entire boat is reserved for only your group, accommodating up to 12 passengers.

We depart from Dover Harbour to your chosen location which can vary from a few minutes to an hour or more depending on the distance.

Once we reach your destination it is entirely your choice as to how you would like to the scattering performed. An example of a previous scattering;
The boat engines are switched off, leaving us floating in peace.
Words are said by family members with the Grandchildren strumming on their guitars.
A family member scatter the ashes into the water while the remaining family and friends scatter petals. A favourite tune is played over our onboard sound system.
Time is allowed for everyone to take time in the moment.
Many families then wish to have a coastal tour for an hour and enjoy a lighter hearted ending to this special trip.

At the moment of scattering , your Skipper will note, exact time and location. This will be presented to you in the form of a certificate and enable us to return to the exact position whenever you wish.
