Patrol Area

The patrol area is in a line from Lee on Solent to West Cowes, from Gurnard Ledge to Beaulieu River entrance, central Solent through Southampton water including the rivers Test, Itchen and Hamble. HM Coastguard may extend these areas at their discretion, e.g. in poor weather conditions, during multi-roll tasking or when other rescue units are unavailable.

Patrol Times

The service aims to provide 365-day cover. In addition, the crew attend the station every Saturday and Sunday, and on Bank Holidays; this provision includes regular patrols of the area. Major race and other water-sport events are also covered.
