Tidal creeks with a big shoal-draught fleet

Chichester Harbour is a network of shallow creeks with a bar at the entrance, and much of the fleet is on drying or half-tide berths. That governs everything: work must fit the tide, and lift-outs are planned around springs.

The harbour is a conservation area, so hull cleaning and antifoul removal have to be done in controlled conditions rather than on a beach or a scrub-off.

What owners book at Chichester

  • Antifoul removal and reapplication under contained conditions
  • Keel and bilge inspection on drying berths
  • Trailer-sailer and dinghy repair work
  • Mast up-and-down services around the season

Local timing: Spring tides dictate lift-out dates here more than the calendar — confirm the tidal window before you accept a quote.
