|
Anchorage Marina is located in Williamstown in Melbourne Australia on the banks of Port Phillip Bay. The O'Hare family has owned & operated the Anchorage Restaurant and Parsons Marina for the past 25 years. Located on The Strand in Williamstown and built over the water, the restaurant boasts numerous awards and has unbeatable views across the bay to the city. The site of the marina was the original Parson's boatshed that was built in the 1890's. Parsons ran a boat hire and marine services business catering to the numerous tall ships and steam ships that used to frequent Hobson's Bay. The old boat shed is still within the restaurant structure which has evolved over the years. The original marina was builts in the 1940's and has seen a few face lists since that time. The biggest face lift however is now complete with the demolition of the old timber and concrete structure and the introduction of a much needed 90 berth floating marina facility renamed The Anchorage Marina. The new state of the art Bellinghamd Marina includes berths ranging from 8m to 23m in length and offers shore power, internet camera, security, wireless internet access and 20 dedicated visitors berths. We have strong business relationships with all marine services and offer access to these services to ur berth holders. Opened officially in December, 2005 by the Premier Steve Bracks after 3 years seeking approvals and permits and 14 months of construction including dredging 38,000tonnes of silt and removing 6800 tonne of rock, constructing a new marina office and carpark facility. Anchorage Marina is also home to Aussie Boat Sales, a new & used boat brokerage. Both the marina and Aussie Boat Sales pride themselves on being service oriented business with the boating publics best interest at heart. The O'Hare believe that passion for boating is a pre-requisite for being in this industry. |
