I gather that it's moored off Stokes Bay i.e. just round the corner from Gosport towards Lee on Solent. Get anywhere close and I don't think you'll miss it ;-)

Thanks, that's what I understood but I just wondered if anyone had actually seen it.........yes, pretty hard to miss I agree but we don't know that area at all (New Forest call is too strong).

We are going down on Weds for a couple of nights

If you can see the IOW from stokes bay or lee on solent you cannot miss it, it is humungous.

I think you can see the IOW from most places down there, the very first time we went we didn't realise it was an island even, we just thought it was a headland as it looked so close
