New rules for DSC/VHF and EPIRP

The Department of Merchant Navy finally enforced the use of DSC/VHF and EPIRP on all charter boats that have been registered from 1st February 2000. This will make the boat owners dig their hands deeper into their pocket as the previous seasons have not been to expectations with all other expenses getting dearer and the income from the charters being the same or lower in some cases for the last 5 - 7 years.
Another matter will be the education of the charterers in the use of these two equipment and soon will need to produce a certificate for having passed a test in the use of them.

lets hope for the best

As from today we are no longer the base managers for Moorings & Athenian Yacht Charters.
The association with Athenian Yacht Charters started in 1997 where we represented the company in Corfu as base managers for all their charters.
In the spring of 2001 Moorings asked us to become their base managers too.

Being in the same group as Athenian we managed both companies separately until now.Their policy changed and they decided to put one of their own personel to handle both bases.
We wish them and the new base manager luck in their new venture and we will continue to help if and when needed.
Anna, myself will continue to represent the rest of the yachting companies and boat owners as we did in the past.

The new position in the marina is on Pier B between No16 & 21. The position is very convenient as it is right next door to the pedestrian entry/exit of the marina into the village.
