Marina managers finally get certified

01 May 2008

CONFERENCE: A mixture of inland and coastal marina managers, product representatives and overseas delegates from Spain, France and Italy welcomed five newly certified managers to the fourth annual Marina Managers Conference, held in Portsmouth on 10-11 April.

The five new CMM’s and Andrew Collumbell, the Chairman UK & European CMM group

Dave Wilson, of Marina Developments, Stuart Jones, Quay Marina, Shaw Smith, Marina Developments, Rod Grant, British Waterways Marinas and Oscar Siches, a Marina consultant, all received their certificates at the event, organised by the British Marine Federation (BMF), the UK CMM Group and Yacht Harbour Association.

The Certified Marina Manager designation is internationally recognised by the marine industry, and these appointments bring the total number of European CMM’s to 40.

The new format of the Walcon sponsored conference also meant the rest of the 130 delegates could put their time to good use with a networking lunch, presentations and a champagne reception.
