Super marina still in BTII pipeline

SUPERYACHTS MAY be sailing by, but the chance to have the long-touted super marina has not passed Barbados just yet.

That’s the word from Stuart Layne, chief executive officer of the Barbados Tourism Investment Incorporated (BTII), who said plans for the Bridgetown Pierhead Marina project were still very much on the cards.

However, it probably would not be built before 2020, or even later.

“We are involved in many projects and in the process of doing others, and the marina is still one of them,” Layne told the DAILY NATION in a recent interview. “It is still actively on the cards, but there are several factors involved before it can be constructed.”
