In a project representing a £480,000 investment, Premier Marinas prepares plans to revitalise Port Solent Marina’s infrastructure to allow the marina to accommodate bigger boats by the 2018 season.

The project includes reconfiguring pontoons A-D and the plan is to provide berths to make Port Solent into a marina that can host boats from 6.5m up to 33m. Additionally, this reconfiguration work will provide the opportunity for wider fairways and the renewal of pontoons and walkways.

General Manager, Graham Bristowe, commented: “Port Solent was built in the 1980s and since that time manufacturers have made boats both longer and wider, which has meant that our current pontoons are now dated. This upcoming project endeavours to modernise the infrastructure of Port Solent, allowing it to berth larger boats which is expected to be particularly popular with motor boat owners.”

The works will begin early in 2018 in preparation for the new season, with the aim of making Port Solent’s berthing better suited to accommodate both the current population of boats and bigger boats.
