There has always been a thing on the Gunwarf website saying that boats should have a booking and that QHM will allow only boats with a booking accross. However, as was discussed on here not so long ago, this doesn't really seem to be enforced.

I went in the other day without a booking, no problem at all. The pontoons were pretty empty - I paid my £6 and they were happy.

I'm sure QHM has better things to do than check you off on a sheet of reservations!

Hi all,

You can still cross the harbour to enter the camber dock and visit the pub. Then stick your nose into Gun Wharf and perfectly legal eh pete

'Fraid not. They're the full time lads.

Us Volunteers don't have time for such luxuries (apart from the odd coffee in Starbucks )

I think you might be supprised.
You are dealing with the armed forces here and they love paperwork as seen in todays bulitin about the Global Challenge race start.

QHM as required of permitted vessels. Vessels whose names do not appear on the advice sheet will not be allowed to cross the harbour from Ballast Buoy.
