Many empty berths in CQ though, and I've heard some of the traders remark they are finding the pinch. Not good in my view, better all round if there is plenty of activity, it would not be of benefit to us all should there be too much pressure on marina income.Cobbs Quay occupancy rate is clearly well over 60%. Mind you the impending Twin Sails Bridge has already led to some boats leaving CQ and no doubt more will follow once the Bridge is operational.
Regarding new bridge; should be of great benefit in my view, seems to me we will find less restrictions in reaching the open sea, it being open for longer periods. One great benefit of CQ rarely mentioned, is just how sheltered it is, specially so from the prevailing westerly's, unlike other marinas scattered round Poole Harbour.
