Christophe Harbour announces phase one marina funding complete

Press Release

    Marina Slip Reservations Sold Out, Creation of New Industry in St. Kitts Underway

     

    FEBRUARY 21, 2013 (Christophe Harbour, St. Kitts) – Christophe Harbour Development Company, Limited announced during an interview with Clive Bacchus on WinnFM that all available marina slip reservations currently available have been purchased and that no third-party funding has been necessary to begin development of the Christophe Harbour Marina.

     

    Opportunities have been extended to the local community and the St. Kitts Sugar Industry Diversification Fund to play an active role in the development of the Marina Village, which signals the arrival of a new yachting and marine industry for the federation of St. Kitts and Nevis. 

     

    Christophe Harbour Chief Operating Officer Bill Lee explained that while reservations for the marina slips have been purchased, the future of all the businesses, services, and support ventures necessary for St. Kitts and Nevis to take its rightful place in the regional yachting industry requires the involvement of the full spectrum of people in the community.

     

    "The Christophe Harbour Marina Village concept inaugurates a nearly untapped industry in St. Kitts and Nevis that has proven especially productive for many other island nations," said Lee.  "The idea that private investment projects like Christophe Harbour can pave the way for so much job creation is remarkable, and it's my hope that government, the business community and the population at large will join together as partners to further move this new industry forward. Minister of Tourism Ricky Skerritt and Director of Maritime Affairs Mr. McLean Hobson have charted the way for the Federation and with our course set, we are beginning to see our final destination on the horizon.”

     

    The Christophe Harbour Marina and Marina Village when complete represents hundreds of millions of dollars in new investment for St. Kitts and Nevis, creating new businesses and many more jobs in the hospitality, yachting, and marine industries.  With hotels, restaurants, boutique shopping and the island's proximity amongst well known yachting destinations such as St. Barths, St. Maarten and Antigua, St. Kitts is well positioned to elevate its standing in the yachting industry and affirm its rightful place as a must-visit Caribbean destination.
