Solent Boating Survey

A panoramic view of a coastal cityscape under clear skies. The scene features a body of water in the foreground with two sailboats and a speedboat in motion. The dense urban skyline in the background includes various buildings, with a prominent Spinnaker Tower to the left and tall structures towards the center.

Help protect the Solent’s seagrass meadows

We are conducting this survey to understand boaters' perspectives on mooring and anchoring practices in the Solent's seagrass meadows. These habitats are crucial for marine biodiversity and protecting them requires cooperation from the boating community.

By sharing your insights, you can help us develop strategies that balance habitat conservation with community values. Your participation is vital for guiding effective conservation efforts and ensuring sustainable boating practices.

There are several fantastic prizes up for grabs upon completion of the survey: an exclusive guided shore walk with a marine biologist for up to eight people, a year’s free membership to the Trust, and a £20 voucher for Fatface Foundation Store.
