Largs' birthday

Twenty years ago Largs Yacht Haven was just an idea to transform a stretch of sandy shore into a marina, writes Mike Balmforth .

Now, after 20 years of continuous development, this busy and popular marina has reached maturity, with the maximum number of berths installed, and a full range of shore facilities in place.

To reward customers the famous paddle steamer Waverley has been chartered for an evening cruise in June, on which all berth-holders will be guests of Yacht Havens. Needless to say, it is fully subscribed.

Developing 700 berths and creating 100 jobs on site required vision and perseverance and for the last 15 years local Yacht Havens director Carolyn Elder has had a sure hand on the helm. The result is not just a boating facility, but also a marine business park, a social centre, and a high calibre yachting event venue.
