Moorings for larger boat south UK

Hi all, New to this and it’s my first post. I have a live abroad converted ferry. She is 79ft 18ft beam and 5ft Draft. I’m trying to find out where the best marina/ports are in the south of the Uk. I have messaged a couple but I’m finding some will not take a boat our size. So I’m asking for your experience and advice. Currently where we are based is nice but most are livesboards they don’t move and our mooring is very difficult to get out and we want to be able to use our boat. Also it is tidal and we would like be afloat all the time. Is there a list of marinas/ports anywhere online? Also do all port’s accept dogs on boats?
Any advice or recommendations would be fantastic Cheers 👍

Re: Moorings for larger boat south UK

A number of yards up the R Itchen in Southampton might be able to take you.

The other option is a river Mooring in Cowes IOW.

Portland could probably take you, but won't be cheap.

Shoreham or Newhaven would be worth a call.
