Things to consider when choosing a marina for your boat

In this episode I'm sharing the considerations and the thoughts you may or may not have thought of before choosing a marina for your boat.  As you know we have Empire Marina in Bobbin Head in Sydney, a 200 berth marina in an idyllic location,  which is at the top of it's game being 5 Gold Anchor Accredited with the Marina Industries Association and having Waterside Bistro - the Marina Restaurant of the Year for 2021.  But we are also now the proud owners of Empire Marina Lake Macquarie - a 250 berth marina in Lake Macquarie - which believe it or not is twice the size of Sydney Harbour. I am also a Director on the Board of the Marina Industries Association. Don't forget I am also a multiple Boat Owner so I see the needs of a consumer in a marina too. Add to that the fact that I've also seen and been to many other marinas all over the world on ICOMIA events and socially,  and as a result through our boating community,  I've heard what those who use a marina and work in a marina say when it comes to everything from facilities, location, transport, pricing, parking, insurance, environment, security, tidal access and the marina community. I love sharing all of this knowledge with you to improve your boating lifestyle. I hope you enjoy this one it's packed with useful information and hopefully makes you think about if you are in the right marina for your boating lifestyle too.   www.empiremarinas.com.au www.empiremarinalakemacquarie.com.au www.marinas.net.au
