Does anyone know this marina?

[lenseman]

Can anyone recognise this marina. I was told it is Port Solent but the roofs are totally different. The yachts all seem to be small, and it was suggested that it might be an east coast marina

Looks like the link has been shortened with the three dots

Looks to me like Ocean Village Portsmouth

Ocean village is in Sourhampton

Looks a bit like Hythe, but only been there once and it was a long time ago, and it was on the way to a Scuttlebutt Cherbourg trip so memories are a bit hazy.

Would also say hythe. The rails look very similar

Silly ass me yes I meant Port Solent - you know the big one at the top of Pompey harbour as the OP suggested. - Senior moment

Well, I know Ocean Village in Southampton but do not know of one in Portsmouth?

The roofs are all wrong for Ocean Village in Southampton and the roofs are all wrong for Port Solent too which is the nearest I have found to date.

It is like Port Solent and also like the small marina village behind Brighton Marina.

The yachts all seem to be sub 30-35 foot so it was suggested it might be east coast (bilge keelers), but I do not know any village type berths on the east coast?

Which marina?

Hythe, unless someone moved my boat.

I think you're right.

+1 for Hythe. Bit plastic, but lovely looking marina.

My first thought was Hythe, I was berthed there for a few years, but as it was a few years ago I would'nt stake my life on it!

Thanks for all the replies.

The photographs were taken by a female Marine Engineer from Montevideo, Uruguay and she had a whirlwind visit to the UK in May 2011 and did not know which marinas that she had visited.

She visited Ipswich, Port Solent, Haslar but the unknown one that has now a name is Hythe Marina.

One photograph from near the RNLI boat and the other from just along the quay across the lock gates:

50° 52.564'N 001° 24.037'W - Looking WSW.

50° 52.495'N 001° 23.919'W - Looking SW.

Thanks again
