Citizens Against Bahia Mar Fiasco
Nov 21, 2017
Millions of dollars were spent last year on dredging so the world’s deep draft Super-yachts could make it from Port Everglades to Bahia Mar. Also, Bahia Mar is now designated as a foreign trade zone so yachts can be legally bought and sold at the Bahia Mar Yachting Center without having to go offshore. (See article below).

Super-yachts that now dock at Bahia Mar require a crews of 10 to 28 people These are floating small business enterprises each generating hundreds of thousands of dollars in payroll, and sales of equipment, materials, supplies, taxes and dockage fees while in Port.
These yachts require a significant amount of conveniently located space for parking and loading areas essential for the continual cleaning, maintenance, provision delivery and the arrival and departure of guests and passengers while in Port
This critically essential space to support the activities of 250 yachts has not been provided for in the Developers Plan for Bahia Mar. Without this infrastructure Bahia Mar will not continue to function efficiently as a working Super-Yacht Marina.
What the Developer is proposing is not compatible with the needs of a World-class Super-Yacht marina.
