Back in October I was walking down on the Boardwalk checking out all of the completed revitalization projects the City of Bremerton had completed over 2007 and was mesmerized by the construction of the new Port of Bremerton Marina.  I had the opportunity to talk to a couple of workers who informed me that the project should be complete by April 2008.  Well looks like that date has really been moved up. The major part of construction will now be completed by February 2008!  This is so much earlier than the Port of Bremerton expected that they have started to take reservations for slips at the end of November. 

This 22.9 million dollar project has been  controversial for the residence of Bremerton. There will now be 45 visitor slips and 229 permanent slips.  There will no covered moorage at the Bremerton Marina.  It will be interesting to see how fast these are all occupied.  I agree with not having covered slips to protect the visual effect of the Bremerton Boardwalk however, this isn't San Diego.

The city speculates that if the Bremerton Marina does fill and becomes a popular boating destination, it has the potential of adding approximately 2oo jobs and $2 million a year in revenues to the nearby restaurants and shops.

Bremerton has changed just so much. It is truly remarkable the turnaround the downtown has experienced. I think you willl find that non-covered marina is a bonus. The marina along our downtown boardwalk is uncovered. And it looks good that way. The area where the covers start really translate as a wall, not open to everyone.

I agree that uncovered slips are more aesthetically pleasing. The phenomenon I find odd about marinas is that so many boat owners often don't leave the marina. They just go out to their boat and sit on it.

Sarah, I agree that the uncovered is really more pleasing. If you have a boat here in the Puget Sound area you have to be able to handle a "little rain" :)

Elizabeth, I have seen that too - maybe it is because after the boat payment, the food and drinks and the moorage fee there is no money left for fuel!! lol!!!
