A North Easterly gale is expected from Friday 9th March 2012. Owners of yachts facing into the North East are advised to check their ropes and ensure that their boats are securely tied away from the pontoon, fenders are in place and loose items are secured.
Currently there are berths available for yachts needing to take shelter in the Marina for a few days in anticipation of this weekend’s forecasted strong North Easterly winds. BEFORE entering the marina, contact the Marina Office on 21337049, to present valid insurance and registration for the yacht. The Berthing Master will direct you to a suitable berth.
Marina residents are reminded to inform the Marina Office at least 4 days before launching yachts, to ensure that there is adequate time to vacate the berth.
Marina users should note that strong North Easterly winds are expected on the 9th & 10th March 2012. Marina staff will be inspecting ropes during the coming days but yacht owners are advised to check that their yachts are securely moored, fenders are in place and that no loose items are left on deck.
