We will not be taking reservations for the 2017 Shrimp Festival at this time. There is no reason to come by the Marina or to call on Jan 2nd. Until repairs are completed we do not know what will be available to reserve. At this time we are looking at early March 2017 to take reservations. Happy New Year to everyone!

Things are moving forward! The bid for the 10 minor repair projects (ITB 16-18) was opened on December 22nd. The next step is to award the bid to the successful bidder. This will take place on Tuesday, Jan 3rd at the scheduled City Commission meeting. Then the work can start!

Because of the damage caused by Hurricane Mathew, we will<strong> not</strong> be taking advanced reservation on January 2nd, 2017. We will continue to monitor the marina repair status and when we know what slips are available and what the maximum size allowed for the slips that are available, we will advertise a reservation date. This new reservation date should happen some time in early March.

The City of Fernandina Beach issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB16-18) for the ten minor repair projects. A mandatory pre bid meeting was held on Thursday, December 15th, 2016. Multiple vendors were in attendance. Sealed bids will be received and opened on Thursday, December 22nd, 2016 at 2:00 PM in the upstairs conference room at City Hall.
