This is just my experience but on every occasion I have been to Haven they tend to cram you in like cattle on the visitors pontoons. If you are on the starboard side of the visitors pontoon opposite the linear it can be very tight to get in or out when there are bigger boats on the linear. We have also booked berths in the past only to find out these have been cancelled on arrival. Been in Neptune's as well and found this to be better getting into berths and you don't tend to be corralled into one visitors area.
The lock can sometimes have a wait of an hour or longer during heavy periods and considering this will be the first time we can officially stay onboard the number of boats coming in and out could be high so be prepared to wait but as johnalison said there is a waiting pontoon outside if you don't mind the seagull poop over the soles of your shoes.
