Description

The Port of Mergellina constitutes the second port of the city of Naples and is to date one of the most important tourist ports in the Gulf of Naples. Since the port is used to be the main link of the peninsula with the islands of Ischia and Capri, it is traversed by a large flow of ships, fast hydrofoils and ferries.

At one time this port was used exclusively by local fishermen; today, however, it has been expanded and used precisely as a marina. A long breakwater protects the south side, while the north side is protected by a breakwater.

The pier reserved for hydrofoils is located inside the harbor basin and more precisely to the west of the sub-billow pier; in the innermost part, however, we see several floating docks branching off from the shore. The areas reserved for pleasure craft extend for about 1.5 km and are managed by different companies: Luise & Sons, Cooperativa Ormeggiatori Nautici Mergellina and ASNA.

Inside the ports, refueling is possible due to the presence of a gas station that dispenses SIF gasoline, mixture and diesel fuel; the fuel station is located at the dock and is open from h 06.00 in the morning to h 20.00 in the evening.

The considerable proximity to the city center means that any type of service and convenience is readily available; in any case, there are many services to the yachtsman within the port itself. Electrical, engine, sail and wooden, steel or fiberglass hull repairs are carried out. Outdoor or indoor storage is also available. There is also a fixed crane of up to 20 tons and five truck cranes of up to 15 tons.

From the port of Mergellina it is possible to admire the hill of Posillipo, a promontory of rare beauty characterized by sumptuous villas and sheer cliffs overlooking the sea. Also at Capo Posillipo is the Virgiliano Park, a green oasis not far from the Gaiola Underwater Park, which can be visited only by guided boat tours or by snorkeling and diving itineraries.

The great peculiarity of this Underwater Park is the fusion of volcanological, archaeological and biological elements present within it. Indeed, on the seabed of the park it is possible to observe the remains of ports, nymphaeums and fishponds submerged due to the slow and progressive sinking of the earth’s crust. The continuous vivification of the waters combined with geomorphological complexity has also allowed numerous marine biological communities typical of the Mediterranean to settle in a few hectares of sea

Do you need to sell your boat? You are in the right place! Tuttobarche.it 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 Tuttobarche.it 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.
