Liveaboard Marinas in the south coast of the UK

[NJS-Rodrigues]

Hi everyone and apologies if this topic has already been covered.

I am currently struggling to find a marina in the south coast of the UK that will accept liveaboards.
I have been turned down by a few marinas already and Im starting to think that this is an impossible project of mine.
Does anyone know of any marinas that are currently accepting liveaboards ??
I understand that with Covid and lockdowns its a bad time to be doing this, but we still have time and not in a rush yet.

Hope someone can shine some light on this topic and thank you in advance.

Weymouth is the first one to come to mind but not sure if the bridge s opening as the main harbour is closed. Maybe Portland? It is their sister marina. If you Get really desperate I'd try anchoring in Mudeford nr Cristchurch.

Edit:just had a look and saw this https://www.marinareservation.com/ma...ht-centre-2287 never knew it existed.

Brighton marina has a lot of liveaboards. Gosport, Chichester and Southsea also have a few. Most marinas turn a blind eye to liveaboards as long as you are sensible and don't set up satellite dishes, sheds, rusty bikes on the pontoon etc.
I think most people don't mention the liveaboard bit when getting a berth!
