Swansea Marinas\'s new Dry Dock

I see that Swansea Marina has opened its new dry dock.

Saves lifting out for scrubs and antifouling I guess!!! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Ha ha, the latest date for reopening the new lock gate is Thursday this coming week

Keep up to date with the Swansea Marina Webcam

Then we can get on with a bit of boating....

Have to say I am normally berthed in the Yacht Club marina in the river. The Swansea marina have put us up whilst the river is being dredged.

Would like to say they have made us very welcome, and have provided a geat service.

Thanks to the Marina Staff.

But looking forward to going home next week.....

Ah. Maybe I should wait a bit before planning a trip down to Swansea then.

We're hoping to visit Swansea over Easter, weather permitting of course!
Never been there by boat, looking forward to it!
That dry dock looks enormous /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

The marina web cam link on the left of the page on your link shows that the lock is now flooded so here's hoping for a dry and calmish weekend.
