6 MORE BERTHS FOR BUCKLER’S HARD

-

A £2 million investment in Buckler’s Hard Yacht Harbour on the Beaulieu River will add 66 new berths to one of the UK’S most picturesqu­e marinas. The total number of berths will increase from 198 to 264, including a number of berths for bigger boats. The marina opened in 1971 and, apart from an initial decade of developmen­t, has remained largely untouched.

Marina Projects has been appointed to oversee the project, scheduled for the winters of 2019/ 2020 and 2020/2021 to minimise disruption.

Beaulieu Enterprise­s Managing Director Russell Bowman said, “The proposals represent a significan­t investment in the future of the Beaulieu River and are an important part of ensuring that it remains one of the most desirable places to visit and moor a yacht. We recognise that it is a very special place and are committed to undertakin­g the project in a sensitive and sustainabl­e way.”
