Broom Owners Club

For those who are planning to visit Channel Islands’ waters this season, here are some updates about marinas on the adjacent French coast:

Le Legue - The marina and facilities have been refurbished and some shops bars & cafes have opened nearby. There are plans for a new 1,000 berth marina to be built outside the lock in two phases due for completion in 2010.

St Servan - A yacht club has been opened above the marina office.

St Malo, Bassin Vaubin - Work has started on the construction of a 480 space underground car park. There is a very large hole where the bus station and road alongside the tourism office used to be, so expect noise & dust for some time!

Granville - Much-needed new 9m fingers have been installed.

Cartaret - The marina has been dredged, together with the channel immediately outside the marina entrance, however the dredged area is reportedly quite narrow.
