Scotland’s largest marina has adjusted their berthing layout to meet growing demand for berthing vessels up to 20m in length.
Largs Yacht Haven on the Firth of Clyde provides a sheltered, full-tide marina with berthing for over 700 boats plus up to 300 more in the boatyard serviced by a 75 ton boat hoist and Park & Launch service. The marina plays host to the famous Richard Mille Fife Regatta and the annual Largs Regatta Festival, as well as providing visitor berthing for over 4,000 visitor nights per year.
However, in recent years the popular marina has witnessed a change in demand for its visitor and resident pontoon berths. “We’ve seen a notable increase in the number of 15m to 20m vessels berthed at Largs Yacht Haven”, explains Marina Manager Dave Hewitt. “Berths for this size of boat can be hard to come by for owners so to meet this demand we have adjusted a number of finger berths to provide additional alongside berthing for 15m+ boats.”
“The Yacht Haven means so much to the local community of Largs and Ayrshire, and the wider boating network”, Dave concludes. “We have a series of events planned to celebrate our ruby anniversary for berth holders and the wider community alike. 2024 is set to be an exciting year!”
