Here are some of the comments we have received after only 1 week. Some are from well known and respected people in sailing, environmental, marketing and other fields, but we have decided to just list them anonymously
“….I like the new Solent website. Simple and informative”
“….impressed at the structured approach you had taken to the project, starting with a detailed understanding of what your members and others want to be informed about. The result is a very clear and attractive web site, with all the relevant and up to date links….”
“….Great job on new site @SolentProtectio. I particularly love Solent Now….”
“…I’m very impressed – it’s looking great with some really useful info there, easy to find too and nice design…”
“Thank for the update to the website which I thought excellent. Easy to use and full of interesting stuff. Well done”
“….Thank you for this site, the Solent Now and ship location page is wonderful. I have been able to track the Brittany Ferry that we go on tomorrow night…….”

“I think It’s a great idea to use “Facebook & Twitter” to highlight your cause and hopefully reach a greater audience. I value the Solent because of It’s beauty, being a very keen photographer It provides endless opportunities for my hobby and will (I hope) continue doing so far into the future. I am more than happy for you to use any of my Images in fight to preserve the Solent”
“Thank you for taking the time to view my images and you comments, I take a look at the site and continue to contribute to the group and am happy for my images to be used on the Solent Protection Society site.”
“….many thanks for your lovely informative email, it’s good to know that you and your colleagues are working so hard to protect this coastline that I love so much, and it is much appreciated. Although I love the New Forest, and live on the outskirts of a small village on the edge of it, it’s the coast here that is really where my heart is. I have travelled widely and find much of the coastline here one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen…… I have given permission in the past for my images to be used by your group, and I am still more than happy for them to be used in any way you would find useful. Thank you for asking as most people don’t. I will make sure I have a good look at your website as well…”
