Pontoon 2: Update

Published 09:11 on 7 May 2022

Due to storm damage the pontoon on Slipway 2 was removied for inspection.

After removing the pontoons from the water their condition was found to be very poor with broken and fragile floatation units. The connecting frames were distorted by the February storms and the anchor fittings broken. They were a hazard and major works had to be immediately scheduled. We are currently in discussions with the club's insurers to repair the existing pontoons or hopefully replace them. The Council has agreed a budget to be put towards a new pontoon if the existing are written off. Assuming we get a decision from the insurers this month we can potentially have the pontoon either repaired or replaced and back on the water in July or August. Until then we ask members to bear with us and use the pontoon on slipway one.
