Description

The beginnings of the Jรกvea Yacht Club The space in which the Jรกvea Nautical Club is located is intimately linked to the works of the Levante Pier. The major engineering work of the time dates back to 1949, when the design of the new seawall and contradiction was created, which would replace the scarce rocks with solid concrete blocks. The project was written by engineer Vicente Vicioso Vidal, of the Ports Group of Alicante-Valencia, and was awarded to contractor Bernal Pareja S.A. on January 28, 1952 for 18,520,265 pesetas. Work began in 1952, the first phase of the mega-project, but not until 1973, when finally cleared recent work, which would leave East and West sports, as we know them today.

In 1956, a second restructuring would include larger basins connected to the contradiction (Poniente breakwater) as a result of fisheries renewal. All the breakwater reforms would be done from the beginning to benefit the local fishing industry, a strong pillar at that time for the livelihood of the fishing district of Aduanas de la Mar. The dams were the biggest local attraction at the time for five years. People referred to the Levante Dam as a “dam” and according to the testimonies of old fishermen, then the townspeople and surrounding approached the customs to see the progression of the work, something unheard of at the time.

Beginning in 1957, when it began to see the end of riparian work, construction began on docks for small boats and between them a service road for machinery passage (now road access to the Club and parking lot).

Behind the current Club parking lot, across from the old infirmary, one can still see, in relatively good condition and half hidden among the trees, the building in which the stone used to build the Levant Dam and rails milled with which the wagons evacuated excess rock from the mountain excavation. The only existing buildings in the area in the 1950s belonged to the Shipwreck Rescue Society. A tangone or Tangรณ LIFEBOAT, located on a promontory in the bay of the same name, which served as a shelter fishermen could not approach the coast in case of rough seas, in the absence of a sheltered ports.

There was another building in the ports, which would be known years later as “Casa del Contramaestre.” The first headquarters of the Jรกvea Yacht Club was formed by an agreement between the Shipwreck Rescue Society and, on behalf of the Club, the then president, Jaime Cruaรฑes Cholbi, and secretary Juan Crespo Ruaรฑo. As stated in the 1958 constitution, “the occupancy of the building and other equipment they own at this local station is established, so that until the final site is resolved, it is considered a social building.”

The old building was renovated and qualified as headquarters. Later it would be the home of the boatswain’s mate and machine shop. That was the first headquarters of the Jรกvea Nautical Club, a dilapidated building used in 1955 as a nautical store where peons and dam workers were sheltered from the cold. The building would later host the meetings of the first board of directors of Jaime Cruaรฑes and the few members who owned a club still in diapers.

Much has changed since then, though perhaps only on the outside, because the entrepreneurial spirit of the early partners is still alive in 2008, 50 years later. Introduced in 1964, the Yacht Club had already obtained the necessary administrative concession to develop its nautical activities. Jaime Cruaรฑes left office with duties performed and a new president took over. D. Federico Noreรฑa Echeverrรญa grabbed from the reins a Club that had already begun to grow dramatically. He was inaugurating the presidency with a new headquarters and a very modest dock, right in front of the Club’s old entrance.

The neat “six hundred” in the parking lot contrasted with the messy little boats in the two small dry docks that could not cope with so many nut shells. The social building dates back to 1964. A few years later it would be expanded with the pool and concierge buildings, located next to the old dance floor, where so many parties were held during the years when we saw everything in black and white with rhythmic beats and the sound of Pekenikes The Nautical Club continued to grow rapidly and by the 1970s its membership numbered in the hundreds. In those years, the building where the Sailing School is today is created, the main entrance to the Club is moved to where it is today, the infirmary is created and next to it, the new secretariat.

At the local level, the final design of the port’s fish market began in 1977 and was rebuilt in 1995. It was also at that time that we received an illustrious visit, such as that of D. Juan de Borbรณn, who was seen more than once crossing the Bay of Javea.

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.
