Description

The port of Sestri levante consists of two piers and a wharf that extends northward for about 250 meters. One pier is located near the wharf and the other is northwest of the maritime office. Only small boats can moor at this second pier.

The ports are well equipped, there are four cranes of which three are mobile 30 t and one is fixed 3 t. Storage and repair service is available as well as toilets, showers and all kinds of stores. Boats with a maximum length of 20 meters and a draft of up to 8 meters are allowed to moor.

There are 150 berths available, 6 of which are reserved for transit; only stern berths can be moored in the dock reserved for transit. Boaters can moor in the new quay, which is located between the old quay and the head of the outer breakwater.

The Adua wharf is reserved for the unloading of fish and the launching of vessels, and the Margherita wharf for the docking of motorboats carrying passengers. The management of the berths is administered by the Naval League and the Yacht Club, and in the dock reserved for transit one can stay free of charge for five days extendable to five more in case of availability.

In front of the harbor it is only possible to drop anchor by staying outside the port area, and anchoring is prohibited from May 1 to September 30. Care must be taken when winds blow from the north and southwest and also at the rocks outcropping near the breakwater.

From May 1 to September 30, it is also prohibited to enter Portobello Bay and the stretch of sea between the mouth of Gromolo creek and the head of the breakwater. Both anchor and wheel mooring are prohibited in this area. Once you enter ports, you cannot exceed a maximum speed of three knots, and you must apply to the maritime authority for permission to moor.

The maximum length of boats that can be moored is 20 meters and at the buoy is 12. The port area is also equipped with a fuel station open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. only during the summer period. It is located near the dock and is stocked with gasoline, diesel fuel and mixture.

The docks are lighted, there are a few drinking water fountains, the possibility of repairs to hulls, electrical and electronic systems, and engines. Weather service, divers and a parking lot are also available.

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.
