Major changes planned for Nanaimo’s Boat Basin Marina
NANAIMO — A consultation process is being launched to establish a new layout for the well-used but aging Boat Basin Marina.
Nanaimo Port Authoirty president and CEO Ewan Moir hopes at least some of the inner harbour docks will be replaced in time for next year’s busy boating season, following a widespread public feedback phase.
“There must be a more efficient and better layout within the marina basin that will better meet the needs of these users as we look into the future,” Moir told NanaimoNewsNOW.
The Boat Basin Marina features several docks for numerous users, including fishermen, pleasure craft boaters, a float plane business, Protection Island residents and a pair of restaurants.
