This is a bit eleventh hour but I cannot make a decision! Bringing my new (to me) Targa 38 back to the Hamble tomorrow and have an option to berth at either Port Hamble or Swanwick. Some background - this is our first proper boat, so I'm less experienced than a novice although have plans to rectify this, have two young kids and with no real boat experience want a decent boatyard on hand. It's definitely one of these two as like both, but my concerns about Port Hamble is the tide, it's very busy and more yachts than mobos than Swanwick. Concerns about Swanwick is whether it is too remote and whether there is less to do in and around the marina for the kids. At least at Hamble they can run along the front, throw stones in the river and easily get ice creams! Some opinions from people who have used either or both much appreciated. I need to make a decision first thing tomorrow, otherwise i'll be up the river without a berth!
