I've read reports on Boat Launch about the slips at Swanwick Shore Rd and Lands End Rd on the Hamble but everything relates to RIBs.
Anyone have any constructive views to either or any other options in the same area?
Mainly concerned about parking and water accessibility as I don't have launch wheels. I do have a wife though who will help carry to the shore or bottom of slip.
Warsash has a public slip by the pub, free parking close by in village car park. At this point you are end of River start. Bit slippery at times but for a small boat/sib very easy and does get crowded on weekends BHs

I've launched my SIB from Lepe many times. Pull up in the coach bay and unload/assemble the park the car in the adjacent carpark. River B is easily accessible from here.
It can be quite long at low tide but is so wide with good access you can drive right down to the waters edge and unload. Only high tide makes the slip narrow but even then wide enough for two or three to launch/recover at the same time.
Two car parks, one right next to the slip which can get busy if you are not early and another 100m away.
