MDL Marinas Update – 3rd July

COVID-19 update – Changes from 4th July  2020

 

We are delighted to welcome you back for overnight stays from tomorrow. It’s been a long time, so we expect you’re delighted too.

 

Over the past 14 weeks and five days, we’ve all had to adapt to new ways of doing things, and that includes the ways in which our beautiful marinas operate. We’ve updated our guidance online <https://mdlmarinas.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c59525f59a4436427f32ab4b8&id=85a72372fb&e=fac6ad4794>  but I’ll summarise a few key points below. Rest assured, we’re doing everything we can to make our teams, and our customers, tenants and other visitors as safe as we can by following the government guidelines <https://mdlmarinas.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c59525f59a4436427f32ab4b8&id=d6f171097f&e=fac6ad4794>

Firstly, you’ll be pleased to know that we’re working hard to ensure shower facilities and services will be available as widely as possible from July 4th.  This will happen faster at some marinas than at others, but we aim to have them all open from July 10th onwards. We need to ensure all control measures are in place and compliance to cleaning requirements and social distancing guidelines can be followed.

Secondly, if you plan on cruising to another MDL marina (other than your ‘home’ marina), please ensure you book prior to arrival, via phone. If not, an annual berth holder you’ll need to pay in advance. We know that you’re used to our teams greeting visitors on the pontoons and taking lines, but unfortunately this isn’t currently possible.

Thirdly, we’re all becoming used to social distancing and the way it adapts in different locations from supermarkets to corner stores. We know you’ll be patient and respect all social distancing guidance and the ways in which our marina teams respond to the individual challenges at each marina.

You are more than welcome to read all of the guidance on our MDL website   <https://mdlmarinas.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=c59525f59a4436427f32ab4b8&id=2fca63e354&e=fac6ad4794> and familiarise yourself with how we’re operating. As you’ll expect, it’ll be updated as government guidance changes. If you have any questions please feel free to email HERE <mailto:t.mayer@mdlmarinas.co.uk?subject=COVID-19%20Update&body=Please%20remember%20to%20add%20the%20marina%20the%20question%20relates%20to.%20>

From the whole team and I we would like to thank you all for your patience and loyalty, we are truly blessed to have such an amazing community of boat owners at our marinas. Here’s to a great rest of the season.

 

Best Wishes
