    That’s Horse Sand Fort, there are 4 forts in total on the eastern approaches to the Solent.
    I visited 2 of them today.
    Constructed from 1865/1880 they were built to keep the pesky frenchies out of Portsmouth harbour
    A couple of them have been converted into luxury hotels
    Here’s some info

    Spot on
    Nice level hole shot, much less wander, in fact i barely had to rock the wheel.
    On my return there's a place where the river hamble joins Southampton water and the water gets quite choppy at this point, but trimmed in she just pushed through with no bucking skyward.
    It’s a different boat now.
    And I still topped 50mph on the GPS 1up with a full belly of fuel (running down tide )
