Description

Darsena San Giorgio is a private tourist dock located on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, overlooking the San Marco Basin.

The Darsena, also known as Darsena Croze , can be reached by going up the Orphan Canal until reaching dinazi at St. Mark’s Basin.
The landing is made visible during the day by the presence of two stone lanterns.

This dock is one of two Venetian Sailing Company headquarters and is the largest. Entirely renovated a decade ago, Darsena Croze offers water and electricity supply columns.
For toilets and bathrooms, one must instead turn to the smaller dock, also belonging to the Sailing Company, 300 meters away.

The landing is well sheltered from the sirocco and grecale winds (and all winds in general) but it “suffers” a bit from the continuous passage of ships-many large ones-in St. Mark’s Basin, which create significant swell and noise that can become annoying.

In fact, in case of transit of large boats in the basin, access to the dock is not recommended.
The access channel to the dock (like other access channels to landings in the Venetian Lagoon) is not marked by any light indicators, so access at night and on foggy days may prove complicated.
The dock is also the starting point of many sailing regattas.

The minor dock, also known as the Green Dock, on the other hand, looks toward the island of San Servolo.
It consists of two stone docks and is provided with moorings at the buoy.

It is much quieter and quieter than its bigger sister, but it offers only 22 berths. In addition, it is almost never possible to find staff present in the dock (except on summer weekends, during daylight hours), and to gain access one must always contact the larger dock. Even here it is possible to find a good ridge here any kind of wind.
The docks can only be accessed from the west (entry from the east is prohibited).

The island of San Giorgio offers ample green spaces in which to take relaxing breaks enjoying the coolness of the trees and several points of architectural and historical interest, such as the basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore (designed by Andrea Palladio) and the Benedictine monastery, now used as a foundation.

The Darsena San Giorgio provides an excellent landing point where one can leave one’s boat and take a vaporetto that will arrive in the San Marco area within a very short time.

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.
