Mooring holder James Williamson has won a photographic competition by capturing the natural beauty of the Beaulieu River. His atmospheric shot of the early morning mist over the water was chosen by Lord Montagu, from a selection of entries submitted during 2019.


James, from Reigate in Surrey, was presented with a £200 prize by Harbour Master Wendy Stowe at Buckler’s Hard Yacht Harbour and his photograph will be featured in the 2020 Beaulieu River tide times and information booklet.

Bookings are also being taken for a further release of larger berths which will be provided by the second phase of work in March 2021.
