New Pump Out For Portland Marina

Pumpout for Portland

 

Just completed by Midlands based marine sanitation specialists LeeSan, is their latest pumpout installation which has been installed in Portland Marina.

The powerful LS200HPW LeeSan unit is housed in a mirror finish, stainless steel cabinet with IIID coating and is sited on the left of the marina on the outer pontoon. This pumpout was selected for its extremely high pumping head, which was essential due to the 400 plus metres distance and high head to the main sewer.

 

The new unit, which features a simple stop/start operating system, replaces a much smaller and older pumpout which had seen better days.

Situated just to the West of Weymouth on England’s (Jurassic) south coast, Portland Marina, operated by Boatfolk Ltd., is a busy and well frequented haven for owners of boats of all sizes.

With its proximity to famous locations such as Portland Bill and the 18-mile-long Chesil Beach, the marina is extremely popular and benefits from its train links to London and Bristol.

US troops embarked from the harbour for D-Day and it is where Ben Ainslie and the UK Olympic team sailed in the waters of Portland Harbour. Apparently, there are even a pair of local dolphins named Will & Harry!

Karl Sutcliffe, Technical Director of LeeSan comments. “I am not sure if it is the ever-growing public awareness of pollution or the constant media attention that this subject seems to be receiving, but we are noticing that UK boat owners and Marina owners are now realising that the provision and use of pumpout systems is an essential part of caring for the marine environment. It is also the right way to boost the green credentials of the marine community”!

“Now that we have developed a comprehensive range of clean, user or marina owner operated pumpout systems and have the expertise to site them just about anywhere, there is no reason why this service should not be available to all seagoing craft”!
