Does anyone go boating up there then?

Instead of moaning, send them your local knowledge and they'll add it to the list.

Hi

I think it's a great idea BUT I have the feeling that they only want info from sites who are willing to PAY to be on the list. Unlike our favourite slipway and marina site www.boatlaunch.co.uk

Thanks both David and Brian.

After looking on that site, I fuelled up before and after this weekend's RIBing at Lymington Yacht Haven as their petrol price on the site was the best in the Solent. In fact, it gets better...if you buy over 100 litres by switch, cheque or cash (NOT Visa) then the price fell to 81p per litre.

Almost petrol station prices.
