Wick Harbour Authority attended the Offshore
Europe Oil and Gas Exhibition in Aberdeen to market the
port facilities relative to the growing interest in the Inner
Moray Firth both onshore and offshore.
The Outer Harbour pontoons have been removed and
stored on the quay for the Winter, after a successful season.
In spite of the poor Summer, we had 176 visitors, up 40% on last
year.
23rd and 24th June 2007
Wick HarbourFest, the beginning of the Moray Firth Flotilla Week
was a spectacular success, with 19 traditional boats and 11 accompanying
yachts making it to Wick in spite of earlier fog.

All left on Sunday morning in an impressive sail-out
heading for other ports down the coast. The week culminated
in Portsoy with their Traditional Boat Festival,
and all involved agreed it had been a unique experience not to
have been missed.

Our Marina Phase 1 is now in place and looking great, and ready
in time for next week's HarbourFest celebrations.
All are agreed it is a quality installation by our local suppliers, VARIS Engineering Ltd, Forres, Morayshire, who pulled out all the stops to have it ready on time. Well done to all concerned.

There are approximately 10 berths depending on vessel size, with half for residents and half for visitors, and applications for permanent berths were well over-subscribed which augurs well for our proposed 70 berth installation planned for next year.
