The Balearic Association of Yacht Clubs (ACNB) last week praised the government for their commitment to support future marina extensions.

During a meeting with members of the yachting association, Balearic president, Jose Ramon Bauza and minister for tourism, Carlos Delgado, had confirmed they were happy to review marina improvements and extension projects, providing plans are respectful of the environment. They also acknowledged the importance of the yachting industry to the islands and cited it as one of the keys to economic recovery.

Miquel Suner, president of the ACNB, stressed that, unlike many other sporting facilities, local marinas are non-profit making organisations, providing facilities to thousands of yachting enthusiasts.
