The times of closure are
Friday, June 13 from 22.00 until 02.30 on Saturday 14th
Saturday, June 14 from 11.00 until 17.00
Saturday, June 14 from 22.30 until 03.00 on Sunday 15th
Sunday, June 15 from 14.30 until 16.00
The Harbour Master’s advice is that no vessel should attempt to leave or enter the River at any time during the operation. There will be low spring tides at times whilst the River is open and this is an additional hazard. Harbour staff will be on patrol downriver to warn any vessels leaving whist the contractors will have patrol vessels at the River entrance.

Agree...........we must keep Cowes close to hand............boating would just not be the same without Cowes!!
Another plus will be less visitors to Bucklers............so more beer for the crew of No Illusion!!

Changes to the closure times
This Notice supersedes LNTM 5 of 11/06/2014.
Please note that due to delays the days and times of the River Closure have changed.
Please be aware that due to the laying of a new 132kV submarine cable across the Solent between Lepe and Thorness Bay the Beaulieu River will be closed to all vessels for periods of time on the 15th, 16th and 17th of June.
The River will be totally closed as follows:
Sunday 15th from 12.30 until 17.30
Sunday 15th from 22.15 until 04.15 on Monday 16th
Monday 16th from 13.00 until 17.30
Tuesday 17th from 02.00 until 03.30
These timings are all approximate.
The reason for the closures is because the contractors will be laying large anchor wires and hawsers across the river as part of their operation.
During the periods of daytime closure harbour staff will be on patrol downriver to warn any vessels leaving whilst the contractors will be supplying patrol vessels at the river entrance.
The Harbour Master’s advice is that no vessel should attempt to leave or enter the river at any time during the operation. There will be low spring tides at times whilst the river is open and this is an additional hazard.

The contractors may change the times of opening and closing the river for operational reasons and this should also be taken into account.
A detailed account of the operation is held at the Harbour Office.
Further details of the full Solent Crossing works can be found on ABP Ports Southampton Notice to Mariners No 71 (T) of 2014.
