Description

The Cala Galera Marina: A Boat Slip in Tuscany

The port of Cala Galera was one of the first ports to be built. It is located in the eastern gulf of the same name on Monte Argentario, about 3 km northeast of Porto Ercole.
It is a modern port offering nautical assistance and 670 berths for vessels ranging from 6 to 50 meters, with 635 meters of quays and 12 piers (one of which is floating).

Each dock is equipped with a 220/380V power outlet and a water connection. To enter the Cala Galera Marina, you must sail along the southwestern coast of the Argentario, as the harbor is sheltered by its promontory, and access is unaffected by any weather conditions. On the contrary, the unique structure of the breakwater prevents the only potential hazard—the Scirocco wind—allowing all types of vessels to enter and exit without any problems.

Shipbuilding and landing

The port has shipyards that handle boat maintenance and repairs. The shipyard has two travel lifts with a capacity of up to 80 metric tons and a slipway with a capacity of up to 300 metric tons, and it also offers ample space in the innermost area.

Boats are moored using chains attached to mooring buoys and guide cables. Each vessel is equipped with rings or bollards on the docks. To prevent the formation of stagnant water and backwash inside the harbor, the piers are supported by prefabricated columns made of reinforced and centrifugally cast concrete.
Below sea level, there are three openings that allow for continuous water circulation and exchange. Beneath the Control Tower, there is a fueling dock for premium gasoline, diesel, and mixed fuel.
The Control Tower at the harbor entrance monitors and coordinates traffic and assigns berths along the dock to boaters. Communications between the Control Tower and the boats are transmitted on VHF Channel 9 both day and night.

During the summer, the Tower posts weather conditions and any warnings of storms or thunderstorms on its bulletin board. Only vehicles with a pass issued by the Port Authority are allowed to enter the port area. Even non-member boaters with berths can request a pass from the Port Authority. The port is protected by a fire suppression system and fire extinguishers.

  • Gasoline and diesel fuel dispenser and mixture at the quay (h.8.30/12.30 and 15.30/18.30)

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.
