The marina of Ardenza, also known as Moletto d’Ardenza, is located on the outskirts of Livorno and is named after the neighborhood of the same name. It was built at the behest of Fascist hierarch Costanzo Ciano, which is why the dock has suffered the rhetorical flavor of that era. The management of the marina is currently the responsibility of the Circolo della Pesca e della Nautica “Emilio Mugnai” of Ardenza..

The structure of the Port of Ardenza

The anchorage consists of two docks with 5 comb jetties, 2 of 60m and 3 of 40m, which can accommodate 266 boats with a maximum length of 10m. Of these berths, only a small part is reserved for boats in transit that can temporarily be docked in the places vacated by members.

How to enter ports

The Ardenza landing is characterized by very shallow waters, less than 1.80m and some outcropping rocks that can create difficulties, so it is best to enter the ports close to the breakwater where there is a draft of at least 2m. Access is not possible with winds from quadrant III and with libeccio.

Historical curiosities

Along the balustrade dividing the Ardenza marina from the seafront promenade are several bronze groups depicting dolphins, which were placed in their current location during the 1900s. In 2008, however, the sculptures were removed as they were in need of maintenance and not yet reinstalled due to high restoration costs. The four groups of dolphins were executed according to the design of architect Carlo Reishammer in the first half of the 19th century to adorn the vanished Porta a Mare.

The beach

Next to the port of Ardenza is a free beach with pebbles and a small sandy part, very convenient to reach from the town. Access is allowed to everyone (including dogs), and it is entered either by stairs or by ramp and is therefore also accessible to the disabled. In some areas of the beach you can find rocks at the water’s edge or hidden that you have to pay attention to, and a freshwater pump is available. The beach is very popular not only because it is located near the port of Ardenza but also because it is the closest to Livorno.

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.

Personalize your message

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.

Define the status of the boat

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.

Try to be convincing

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.

Uses correct and simple language

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.

Attracts attention in the first few lines or title

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.

General details

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.

Enter vehicle details

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.

Only positivity!

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.

The price

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.
