Jeremy Payne, better known around the island as Big Jer, is the founder and guide behind Rusty Fender Tour Co.

Born and raised on Hornby, he grew up in the heart of the island community — offering a unique pulse on the islands most coveted artists, local treasures and events.

After years of travelling, he recognized that the best adventures are the ones that could only be experienced at the hands of a true local.

When our 1974 Rally Wagon came up for sale, he knew it was a sign to bring this vision to life.

With its classic lines and nostalgic charm, the "Rusty Fender" is more than just transportation; it’s a time machine.

It’s built for slow coastal cruises, sunshine, salty hair, and the effervescent buzz of a holiday well spent.

Every 3 hour tour has room for up to seven guests and three stops along the way. Options are available to extend your tour, and shuttle services are available to folks who are extra nice.

Whether you're planning a tasting tour, an art crawl, a beach day, or something entirely your own, just share your vision and Big Jer will help you experience Hornby at its very best.
