Description

The New Port of Crotone is located on the northern side of the Ionian coast of the Calabrian town, separated from the Old Port by the industrial zone located at the tip of the Crotone promontory.

In addition to its location, the New Port also differs from the Old Port in terms of its different uses. In fact, while the Old Port is used for tourism purposes or by small local fishing boats, the New Port is mostly exploited for industrial and commercial purposes. However, with the permission of the Port Authority,recreational boats are also allowed toenter.

Because of the natural conformation of the coast, with the two inlets running from the city on opposite sides to Capo Colonna and Cirò Marina, the port of Crotone was founded as early as the 7th century B.C. by the nascent colony of Magna Graecia. Thanks to its strategic location in the center of the Ionian basin, the port developed quickly as a nerve center of trade routes throughout the Mediterranean. After a period of decline in medieval times, the port of Crotone resumed its activity around 1500 under Spanish rule, although the port’s real revival occurred around the 1920s and 1930s in conjunction with the industrial boom in the Calabrian area.

Protected by a long breakwater and a shorter under-billow pier, the New Port of Crotone encloses a basin of 120000 m2, with a seabed of about 8.5m. As reported by local government portals, the area is sometimes subject to very dense fog, such that visibility is reduced to a few hundred meters. It is also reported that there is a submerged wreck located 0.5m from the red pier signal with a water head of about 4m. For more information about the wreck, please consult the nautical charts, on which it is marked (see I.I.M. chart No. 25).

The prevailing winds at the New Port of Crotone are tramontana and winds from quadrants I and II in winter, while winds from quadrant I prevail in spring. The tramontana blows very violently in winter and, together with the sirocco, causes strong currents off the harbor. The safest anchorages in the vicinity of Crotone’s New Port are south of Capo Rizzuto and north of Capo Colonna.

Being a commercial port, the New Port of Crotone, also offers pilotage service, for the entry of bulkier vessels.

Do you need to sell your boat? You are in the right place! yachtdigest.com is in fact the largest online portal on recreational boating and in this section you will be able to write your ad for free if you want to sell your boat. Adding a new sales message is very simple and intuitive as is finding a boat you are interested in buying, but to make your listing even more appealing, we want to give you some general but important pointers that you can follow if you wish.

First of all, try to personalize your ad, describing the history of the boat and perhaps the reason why you are selling it, this way you will gain more trust from the reader.

You can call it “half-new” if it is almost new, or “used” by specifying whether or not it is in good condition. It indicates the condition of the engines, the year of registration, how many owners it has had-most importantly, it indicates whether the boat has been owned by a single owner: it increases interest to those reading the ad.

The goodness of your craft must shine through in your message, because before you can convince someone, you yourself must be convinced that the product is good.

It is important that no spelling errors are made in the advertisement, so reread the message well before putting it online. The language then must be clear and simple, understandable to all.

It serves to attract interest and induce the reader to continue reading; it is the most important part and should summarize in one line the whole message we want to give. Unfortunately, you don’t have much chance to stand out much except with something really original to attract attention. So focus on truly original details of the boat, its real qualities: in the yachtdigest.com portal this brief summary will appear by hovering over the picture of the boat with the mouse.

It is important to clearly include the general record of the vessel. Always enter: shipyard, model, length, width, draft, engines, number of cabins, year of construction, price.

In the boat sheet accurately enter all boat details, standard and extra equipment. It is useful to communicate many details and details for those who are really interested and will continue reading beyond the first few lines.

Suggest to the reader who wants to buy the best features of your craft, and do not indicate-unless it is necessary to inform the buyer in advance-information that might negatively influence the reader.

Always indicate the price. Unless you absolutely do not want to deal, we recommend adding the words “price negotiable” which gives an incentive for the buyer to contact you.
