Checked it out myself the other day, the slip is a good wide slip with a nearby pontoon for loading ect.
Prices approx:
£7 upto 100hp
£14 over 100hp
Parking £6.50 for car £6.50 for trailer. Max 20 hrs.
So thats almost £30 for a launch.
Plenty of room in car park during week, advise that it gets full early at weekends and can be congested with dinghy sailors.
On street parking available for free in vicinity say 5 to 10 min walk.

Regarding Calshot last week end:
I believe that over the weekend the winds were unusually (relatively) from the east / north east which would leave it exposed. The 'normal' wind is from SW from which the slip is sheltered.

kinnell that's a lot of money....
don't suppose parking's free on a sunday, would you know?
re calshot on sunday, yes the wind was from the east, and the problem was the swell kept lifting the boat off the keel rollers and sideways...in the end i drove the trailer further out of the water and dragged the boat up and out..and onto the bunks...wondering how much strain the bow eye is designed to take..
