Yep.

Seriously though, Emsworth in Chichester harbour usually have a few berths at non rip off rates.

We Hampshire yokels have to survive in the national solent economy. But GBP650 seems high. How big is your boat?

All of the Hamble seems very expensive try Kemps Quay on river Itchen (Southampton) sorry no phone number.

Only 36 footer......
Seems to be 'cos I only want a month or 2....
Was there a website where boatowners could offer thier berths if they were away for an extended period?

Seem to remember reading about it somewhere.
If not perhaps we should set one up

Regards

have a look at offtosea weebsite which has list of moorings being vacated. Also, try calling the Hamble River Harbourmaster as he might have a sublet availble for a couple of months.

Also try the Royal Thames YC. They have moorings at the head of the river (Warsash) and they often have "free" ones at the start and end of a season.....it's worth asking.
