Does anyone know if this slipway is accessible all states of tide?

Also how much are the parking charges in the adjoining car park (I know it's cars only no trailers) ?

Not quite all states,
The carpark is quite small and there is no allowance for trailers,
It gets very busy with grockles in the summer months,
The one way system is very narrow and tight with a boat trailer.

On the plus side the jetty is public and free for sort periods....

I've stopped there for coffee and ice cream. Good cafe just to the right of the carpark. :D
Never launched there though.

I recently had a job in Hamble (right opposite the Vic)
It was a nightmare getting deliveries to the job because of the restricted access.

A few boats did launch there with no problems, but i think they were local because they all moored up and drove away with their trailers.
