PROJECTS ON THE GO
CAREENING POLES The replacement poles are now in position and looking good.
As an additional project the Management Committee has determined to invest in the upgrade of the concrete basin - improving the safety and functionality of the pole 1 slab which will then provide another site for contaminant removal. Additional concrete works include extra strengthening measures around the new poles which incorporates extending the concrete into the pole 4 area. Works are currently underway to be completed next week then we wait for the concrete to be cured.
Revised Poles open date: 22 June.
Thanks all for your patience whilst these upgrades have taken place.
Bookings can be taken at the bar next week for bookings 22 June onwards.
Careening site #5 against the wharf available for bookings throughout.
