Cheaper Hamble moorings saved for now
The Crown Estate, which owns the river bed, operates around 650 mid-stream moorings on the river, including the J Pontoon run, which are administered by Hampshire County Council’s River Hamble Harbour Authority.

The moorings are significantly cheaper than the cost of a full-service marina berth, making them popular. There is a waiting list of 15 years for a mooring for a 32ft-40ft boat.
