Learn how to safely navigate to Newtown Creek from Portsmouth Harbour with Boat Club Trafalgar.

This guided boat trip, led by our RYA Instructor Chris Moody, aimed to give our Boat Club Trafalgar members more confidence out on the water whilst showing them how to navigate to a part of the Solent which they hadn’t explored before.

2. Head to North Sturbridge buoy, at a heading of 240 degrees
3. Head to Norris buoy, at a heading of 280 degrees
4. Travel past Cowes breakwater and head to Gurnard North Cardinal
5. Head to Newtown Creek at a heading of 240 degrees, keeping Gurnard Ledge and Salt Mead on your port side
6. Enter Newtown Creek by lining up the Y-shape and the circle to create your transit line
