Hi: Have you tried Googling, Shoreside power supply or Contacting a Marine Electrical company they might be able to give you more info.

Google for supply marina supply pods They come with socket outlets and water woutlets with meteres for both

230v supply would probably be 16a as they will run off battery,invertor when away from marina the shore supply will just be to prevent battery drain

The pillars are not the problem, it's the size of supply. The feeder pillars come with socket outlets from 16A single phase upto 250A for the super yachts.
From looking at marinas the 2 smaller sized boats would probably be powered with a 16A supply.

The 32m Boat I am not sure about though, i was hoping maybe somebody on here may of had experience with marinas and maybe point me to a document/British or international standard

The BSEN for wiring on pleasure vessels is BSEN60092-507 2000 but would cost about £200 to buy.
Generally for small vessels the supply would be 16A, as you have said.
However the size of the vessel is not the problem, you need to know the current demand likely for the installed equipment. If you do a domestic type diversity assessment of the installed equipment and determine the likely current requirements you will then know the size of power supply required.

Found the answers to what I wanted, thanks for your input,
looked at some luxury yachts and took the answers from the generator spec
for the 32m 3phase 100amp supply required
13m single phase 32A supply
16m single phase 45A supply
