Haven Facilities

The Haven at Poole Yacht Club offers sheltered, well-equipped berthing for 378 boats, together with a number of swinging moorings located just outside the Haven. During the season, a launch service is available to transport members to and from the moorings, making access easy and convenient.

Most of the Haven is dredged to a depth of 2 metres above mean low water, allowing access for a wide range of vessels. The pontoons accommodate boats of various sizes, with the largest berths suitable for vessels of just over 40 feet, although most berths are intended for smaller boats.

Members also benefit from a large yard for storage and maintenance, available at highly competitive prices. This provides an excellent option for winter storage, repairs, and ongoing boat care.

Most berths are equipped with water and electricity supplies. Electricity cards can be purchased from either the Haven Office or the Main Office. The pontoons are also fitted with lighting, helping to provide safe night-time access and improved security throughout the Haven.

Pontoon Layout

The Haven is arranged to provide clear and practical access for members.

The four main pontoons are A to D, running from north to south. When entering from the Haven entrance:

  • Pontoon A is on the right-hand side
  • Pontoon D is on the left-hand side

The Waiting Pontoon is primarily reserved for emergencies, but it may also be used by members for loading and unloading their boats for up to 2 hours, provided this does not interfere with the day-to-day work of the Yard Staff.

Additional pontoon areas include:

  • G Pontoon – located on the left-hand side as you enter from the Harbour, home to the R19 fleet
  • F Pontoon – located on the right-hand side, used for smaller boats
  • E Pontoon – situated further in, designated for Dayboats
