by Press Release
Rick Morgan, President & C.O.O. of Old Port Cove Holding’s, Inc. was joined by North Palm Beach, Florida Mayor Ed Eissey, and Marty Murphy, Sr. of Murphy Marine Construction, Inc. and a member of the Board of Directors of the Marine Industries Association of Palm Beach County in cutting the ribbon on the newly renovated Old Port Cove Marina at a ceremony held on 2/28/08.
The marina has been reconfigured to allow greater slip availability for megayachts and other large craft. Joining in the ribbon cutting ceremony were Old Port Cove employees Mark Lavery, Vice President of Marina Operations; Sue Morgan, Marketing Director; Doug Alexander, Dockmaster; Vinnie Frega, Marina Manager; Kathy Lillard, Controller; and Suzy Chadderdon; Office Manager.
Old Port Cove Marina is the first facility of its kind in the northern Palm Beaches built specifically to accommodate mega-yachts, vessels 80’ or larger. The new marina handles vessels from 20’ (yacht tenders and the like) to 190’ and features state-of-the-art high tech floating docks, in-slip pump out, all new electric and utility pedestals, state-of-the-art fire fighting equipment, complimentary wi-fi, cable TV and more. "This completes Phase 1 of the reconstruction at Old Port Cove" Sue Morgan stated. "The second phase, which encompasses similar renovations
to the south basin at Old Port Cove, will begin on or about May 1, 2008. The new marina has been so well received that slips for the south
basin (45’ and up) are already being reserved."
