People always ask; What is the height of the new bridge over the Clarence River? The safe height for yachts to pass underneath is approx 30 metres (you need to arrange to have the old bridge opened to complete the journey). Opening times can be arranged with at least 24 hours notice. So the river is open for business for yachts…all the way to Grafton.

This is the American boat Patriot damaged last week in the lead up to the America’s Cup. The other countries involved, Italy, the UK and hosts New Zealand, all chipped in to get their rival back on the water. What better way to say thanks than with a “band aid” over the wound made up of the flags of the three nations that helped with this great effort. Well done humans!

Great to see Australia Day being celebrated on the water

The weather could not be any better to work on your boat. The hardstand is busy but we will find you a slot if you need one. Great time of the year to work outdoors and get the boat ready for the coming twelve months.

Don’t forget – if you don’t have a boat don’t worry. You can hire tinnies at Yamba Marina 7 days a week. Call the office on 02 6646 9898 to book one. You’ll have a ball on the Clarence River. Go fishing or just cruisin…..there’s fun to be had.

Yamba is packed and holiday makers are having a ball. The weather has been kind and people are using their boats both on the Clarence and off-shore. The marina is packed right now. If you are looking for a berth please call before you arrive. We will do our best to help. There are lost of dolphins in the river so be careful out there.

 

Who said the Clarence River wasn’t a superhighway? Look at this brand new Tesla charging station on the banks of the river at Harwood. Onsite at the charming Harwood Hotel the new charging station is just a few seconds off the brand new Pacific Motorway.  Just another innovation in the Clarence Valley to bring more tourists to this fabulous area. A short hop up the river from Yamba Marina

It has been one hell of a year. But we all must remember why we love Australia. It’s the best place on earth. Enjoy the summer and remember we are here to help at Yamba Marina. We are closed Christmas Day and Boxing Day but open all other days. Come and enjoy the Australian summer. There is no better place. Happy Christmas.

Whenever you visit the fuel dock at Yamba Marina we ask that you observe all the safety rules. Obviously there is NO SMOKING and NO USE OF MOBILE PHONES on the fuel wharf. All fuel delivery will be overseen by a staff member and customers are not to remove the fuel delivery hoses from there cradles. Over the busy holiday period we ask that customers be patient as there is often a number of boat wanting fuel at the same time. We have BP Ultimate Diesel and BP Ultimate 98 unleaded available. Doing the right thing at the fuel dock is very important. We are open for fuel every day – except Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
