Description

Marinas and Recreational Boating Services in Sicily

Porto Rossi is located in the center of Catania, near Piazza Europa. M.E.C. Auto di Rossi P & c SNC, better known as Porto Rossi, was founded in 1961 by Cav. Pietro Rossi, thanks to his passion for naval architecture.

According to Pietro Rossi, a shrewd expert on marina construction, it was not possible to sell recreational boats and marine engines without the presence of a recreational boating complex.

Along the Catania coastline, in the heart of the Town, a landfill formed—known to the people of Catania as “caito”—characterized by natural gullies created by lava flows in the 1300s and 1600s. Thanks to vision, hard-fought battles, and unwavering conviction, what was once a landfill is now an enchanting oasis known as Porto Rossi.

The port has 250 berths, 250 in dock and 200 on land, from mt. 5 to 25 mt.

The ports offer the following services:

  • Draught from mt. 2.50
  • Fuel supply: gasoline, diesel, (with high flow pump) lubricating oils
  • Dock mooring – mooring assistance-dismooring
  • Accommodation yard – lifting equipment: 40-ton travel, crane
  • Mechanical workshop to electrical circuits
  • Shipbuilding: repairs and reconstructions
  • Glass resin and wood setup
  • Hull washes with high pressure washers
  • Antifouling and osmosis work
  • Bar, showers and toilets with drinking water
  • Electricity on the 220 V fixed columns.
  • Possibility of electricity for air conditioning
  • 24-hour sailor service and security
  • Laundry service
  • Calling services by helicopter
  • Black water and waste oil collection
  • Sub Service
  • Video Surveillance
  • Tatami Cladding by Luini Spa
  • Wellness services on board

To enter the ports, it is necessary to follow the access corridor marked by buoys; during the winter months the mouth is obstructed by rocky material due to storm surges, so access is particularly difficult.
It is prohibited to enter ports at reduced speed.

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.
