This book is essential reading for anyone engaged in the multi-billion dollar marina industry. Everyone, whether experienced marina operator, designer, developer or indeed anyone with an interest in refurbishing an existing property will find a wealth of information within the chapters. Readers are provided with a snapshot of the marina industry today and a look at tomorrow's information technology developments that will be pivotal to the success of the marina of the future. It gives detailed information on what a marina developer/designer should consider, when designing a new marina. In addition to compiling data that will be not found elsewhere - including global marina maps (showing 17300 marinas), the book explores in some depth the environmental issues in siting and designing marinas. This Book is been used as the primary textbook, by the University of IZMIR, for the 2 year course Marina Management and Sustainability.
