d’Albora expands Queensland network with new purchase in Australia’s largest small-boat harbour
MA Financial Group’s MA Marina Fund confirms completion of its acquisition of East Coast Marina (ECM) in Manly, Queensland. The marina will expand the Fund’s portfolio to 13 high-quality marina locations and will form part of the d’Albora network – the largest premium marina and hospitality network in the southern hemisphere.
East Coast Marina is located approximately 20kms from Brisbane’s CBD and within the Manly Boat Harbour which is Australia’s largest small-boat harbour. The marina will add 535 additional berths to the d’Albora portfolio including 295 wet berths and 240 premium dry storage racks. Additional facilities include a full-service boatyard for vessel maintenance, commercial tenancies, waterfront dining, onsite marina office and ample dedicated car parking.
In addition to the scale and quality of on-site facilities, East Coast Marina has the benefit of a significant investment in water recycling and catchment facilities for boat washing and landscape irrigation and nearly 300 solar panels generating renewable energy for the site.
d’Albora is Australia’s largest full-service marina network, offering premium marine services and benefits to its customers along the east coast in QLD, NSW, and VIC.
