Mylor Yacht Harbour

Mylor Yacht Harbour has a modern and spacious marina which is protected from the prevailing South Westerly winds and offers a sheltered haven for yachts persons and those wishing to enjoy spending time on the water - with everything a boat owner could need in one place.

Originally the most westerly Naval Dockyard and victualling station in England, then home of HMS Ganges and the Packet ships and centre for the French Resistance during the Second World War, Mylor, now home to the last fleet of Oyster fishing boats under sail, is a haven for water-lovers of all types, whether you enjoy crabbing with the children off the pontoon, cruising local waters or racing further offshore.

Boasting some of the finest sheltered waters in the UK, the Carrick Roads offers a great base for sailing , boat charter and other water sports such as kayaking, paddle boarding, windsurfing and much more. There are many yacht racing events, both local and national, that take place throughout the season in the area.

The entire area is protected as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, from the mouth which has St Anthony Lighthouse (aka Fraggle Rock) to one side and Pendennis Castle to the other, deep into the tree lined creeks to Truro. It is home to many wading birds, seals and otters, not to mention all the basking sharks and dolphins that come into the Roads to feed.

Mylor Yacht Harbour, Cornwall

Much more than a marina, mylor is a refit centre, holiday destination and a cornish idyll.

The marina is the heart of a bustling enclave that offers full boatyard and refit services, boat charter, holiday cottages and an award-winning pub and restaurant serving up local St Austell ales and fresh seafood.

Mylor Yacht Club welcomes visiting yachtsmen and women, and a café and store offer basic provisioning. A 20-minute walk away along the creek in Mylor Bridge is a very well stocked village store (01326 373615).

Mylor itself has a significant maritime history, with the original boatyard being purchased by the Royal Navy in 1805 to maintain its ships. American sailors were based here during the Second World War, and it was the port for the French Resistance. The creek is still home to dozens of traditional oyster boats, still only permitted to operate under sail. You can watch fishermen dredge the creek beyond the moorings and land the morning’s catch on the slipway. If you’re quick, you can buy a handful before they are shipped off to the gastronomes of France.

The marina offers good all-tide access and is the heart of the Mylor operation. It is formed of three pontoons enclosed by two unusual semi-circular pontoons, giving the place a very cosy feel. The more so that there are no towering slime-crusted piles here because the pontoons are anchored using an underwater system.

There is space in the marina for boats up to about 70ft (21m) LOA and 10ft (3m) draught. Visitors berth along the easternmost crescent arm of the marina, which is well sheltered from all winds but an easterly. Check into the recently built marina office on the quayside at the head of the walkway.

Upwards of 60 berths are available for visitors, either alongside or in a finger berth. It is advisable to call ahead on VHF Ch37 or 80 to have a berth assigned, but in the summer, marina staff are on hand in a RIB to direct visitors.

An impressive Victorian crane on the old quay wall is used by on-site riggers for unstepping masts and there are two slipways (one Council-owned) for launching from trailers.

Well-equipped worksheds offer a range of technical services, including engineering work, electrics, electronics, GRP work, shot-blasting, varnishing and painting, carpentry and woodworking (the yard is a centre for traditional boatbuilding and maintenance) plus stainless steel fabrication, all on site. Contact Marine Team for all requirements.

Berthholders will be delighted with the roving marina webcam, which you can control from your desktop to take a two minute look at conditions and check the state of your boat.

Marina office: 0900-1700, 7 days/week (closed Christmas Day); June 0900-1800 (to 2000 at weekends); July-August 0830-2000 (to 2100 weekends)

Mylor Yacht Harbour

Safeguarding the next generation of marine professionals…

Mylor Yacht Harbour with its contemporary Marina, working boatyard, eateries and clustered holiday cottages combines state of the art facilities with an illustrious maritime history, all set at the heart of one of the world’s most beautiful and sheltered waterways – the Carrick Roads on the south Cornish coast.

Its understated elegance provides the peaceful haven for luxury yachts and fishing craft, transatlantic voyagers and day cruisers as well as a keenly competitive racing community. Visiting yachtsmen and women find a friendly welcome from the marina staff and expertise on-hand from Mylor’s Marine Team of comprehensive boatyard specialists where all mechanical and service requirements are catered for.

Mylor is a hidden gem on the banks of the Fal Estuary in an Area of Outstand Natural Beauty. Secluded and tranquil yet it’s a short hop across the water to the bustle of the historic Port of Falmouth or the glorious coast, coves, inlets and beaches of St Mawes and the Helford River.

Two hundred years ago in the great days of sail Mylor was England’s smallest naval dockyard in one of the world’s most strategic ports; with consistent investment through the last 20 years it is now one of the South West’s busiest boatyards and marinas with first class pontoon berths and swinging moorings anchored in some of the country’s finest sailing waters.

The company continues to invest in skills development through its own apprenticeship   scheme and ongoing work with local schools and collages to promote careers within the marine sector for young people in the south west and beyond. As testament to this commitment Mylor is embarking on a project that will see a new generation of GRP Sunbeam sailing yachts to be finished in Falmouth by the next generation of boat builders.

The historic Cornish gem that is Mylor Yacht Harbour…

But few of the international sailors gearing up their vessels for this year’s famous Falmouth Regatta Week would know that two hundred years ago, in the great days of sail, Mylor was England’s smallest naval dockyard in one of the world’s most strategic ports.

In 1805 the British Admiralty developed the site as a Royal Naval dockyard and from 1835 Royal Mail Packet Ships were maintained here. Many of the buildings at Mylor date back to this period and the current Harbourside holiday properties were originally their hospital.

In 1866 HMS Ganges was moored at Mylor and used as a training ship for cadets. During this time and into the early 1900s the harbour served as a service yard for watering and victualing ships.

During the Second World War, American Navy personnel were stationed here to work on landing craft used in the D-Day landings. The harbour also served as a secret base for Free French Resistance fighters, from which they made undercover forays into occupied France.

As such Mylor is a place where past meets present – a thriving marine haven and working harbour which, with consistent investment through the last 20 years, it is now one of the South West’s busiest boatyards and marinas with first class pontoon berths and safe moorings anchored in some of the country’s finest sailing waters.

In 1997 new owners of the harbour set about a £5 million investment programme which would match the fabric and infrastructure of this Cornish gem to its sublime natural environment. This vision enabled the creation of a modern marina and onshore facilities, securing the preservation of the historic buildings, landscape and working traditions for future generations. Recent shore-side development has seen the building of a new yacht club, café and shops, shower blocks and a new marina office – along with the demolition of the dilapidated old yacht club in order to save and protect the Grade II Listed Quay on which it stood.

Mylor’s boatyard thrives and expands with its Marine Team of master craftsmen and technicians with the expertise to match any vessel – ancient or modern – from re-building or restoring the sleekest of classic yachts to the complete refurbishment of Cornish fishing boats. It is the only yard in recent years to build new, wooden Sunbeam classics – on exactly the same lines as their century-old sisters – which race together as one of the most competitive fleets in the country.

Mylor can accommodate boats up to 70 foot and a maximum of a 3m draft, with 180 marina berths and 250 swinging moorings. Mylor’s boat hoist has the capacity to lift 35 tonnes and there is a private slipway for use by Mylor Yacht Harbour as well as a public slipway.

Owing to a high demand for marina space the Harbour is currently in the midst of a widespread consultation into a project which could see more than £1 million invested in a small and sensitive extension to its existing marina which would create an extra thirty berths.

Berth holders have access to discounted fuel – petrol and diesel – as well as the modern shower block, electricity and water supply and use of the water taxi service. They can also take advantage of discounted stays in Mylor’s luxury self-catering holiday properties – Mylor Harbourside Holidays – and they have free shore storage, free parking and membership to Transeurope marinas.

Russian Shipping Riches

The sea transport shares a stake worth 112 087 million current USD for the Russian trade. This creates a significant impact for managing international trade, despite the large land area. The concentration of land does not have too big inland waterways, leading to major ocean ports.

Moreover, the testing conditions while operating in the Arctic do not make the cargo movement easier. In such situations, the Russian authorities focus highly on developing the ice-breaking fleet for year-long operations.

With a diverse portfolio, the major ports in Russia handle cargo of every significant use. The country’s latest focus on developing a green corridor is in line with the shipping requirement and future.

Exiled russian oligarch’s 257’ superyacht amaryllis seen towed through palm beach.

The 257’ superyacht Amaryllis apparently owned by exiled Russian oligarch Andrey Borodin was towed past Palm Beach, FL on Friday morning, according to a visual account by CorpGov .

The yacht, whose owner is frequently cited as Mr. Borodin by enthusiast publications, moved slowly through the Lake Worth lagoon where bridges were raised for its passage. A towboat with flashing lights about 150 feet ahead pulled the Amaryllis , built by German shipyard Abeking & Rasmussen in 2011.

While CorpGov could not officially confirm Mr. Borodin as the owner of the vessel, his wife, socialite Tatiana Korsakova, has posted dozens of Instagram photos and videos aboard the Amaryllis. A yacht broker interviewed by CorpGov confirmed that Ms. Korsakova is indeed aboard the Amaryllis in the photos and videos.

The sighting comes as billions of dollars in Russian-owned yachts have been seized around the world as a result of international sanctions. CNN has published an extensive list of seized vessels, which were taken in harbor cities including Mallorca, Spain and London.

However, it is unclear if the Amaryllis was being seized or voluntarily towed. Very large yachts often choose to be towed because bridges are required to raise for them, according to the yacht broker.

The former Bank of Moscow chief was granted political asylum in the UK in February 2013 after fleeing what he alleged to be politically-motivated fraud and embezzlement charges. Mr. Borodin would go on to be tried and convicted in abstentia in Russian Court in 2018, but not before managing to enlist a number of prominent American lawmakers to lobby Washington for a U.S. visa. Despite Russian extradition requests to the UK government, Borodin’s controversial attempts to make large donations to the NHS, and the uncovering of an assassination plot against his life, the fugitive banker remains overseas, having been granted access to his Swiss bank accounts and having made several notable London real estate purchases during his time in exile.

Mr. Borodin is widely listed as a billionaire, but his total wealth remains difficult to confirm accurately, with the governments of Switzerland and the Bahamas having been asked to help the Russian government in its legal case. In 2012, Borodin purchased the UK’s then-most expensive home, an 80-hectare 18th-century estate in Oxfordshire, for upwards of $217 million. In 2017 he was granted access to personal Swiss accounts holding a reported $378 million. The Amaryllis was purchased for a reported $120 million.

Mr. Borodin did not immediately respond to an emailed query from CorpGov , while the FBI declined to comment. An emailed query to The Department of Homeland Security was not returned.
