  • SYC Projects – we are making good progress on our marina, Ken King Centre and travel lift projects. Our maintenance team have commenced the B West marina works and to see the improvement is always uplifting. They are working inwards from the west and making reasonable progress. The ken king maintenance and upgrade works are also taking shape and in a matter of 2-3 months you will have a greatly improved space at SYC overlooking the marina. With your blessing we have also now placed the order for our new travel lift … so if all goes to plan it will be here and operational towards the back end of 2021.

  • Ken King Centre – a quick reminder we are trading daily from 9am-4pm with some great take home food and hot coffees etc.  

I will be back in touch during the week. If you have a bit more reading time at the moment, please take the time to read our 2021-2016 plan for the future

Warm Regards & Stay Safe,
