Rather,
it is a stand-alone marina with its viability under-pinned by
the need for the facilities which it will provide.

given to Queensland Transport to facilitate maintenance dredging
of Snapper Creek.

TIN
CAN BAY YACHT CLUB
The
Fraser Straits Marina development offers significant benefits,
free of charge, to members and visitors to the Tin Can Bay Yacht
Club. Benefits include a new two storey club house, twice the
size of the existing one, free of charge along with associated
facilities including a new private launching ramp within the yacht
club area, new dinghy launching facilities and the free replacement
and upgrading of some other club assets. Club members have voted
to accept the offer upon approval of the Fraser Straits Marina
development application and a contract being approved by the club's
management committee.
PUBLIC
ACCESS
The
Fraser Straits Marina development will significantly increase
the amount of waterfront access available to locals and visitors.
An
integrated public waterfront promenade and timber boardwalk have
been incorporated into the design and sandy, gently sloping, waterfront
embankments are being created along the eastern and southern boundaries
of the development. The planned development does not interfere
with the current boat ramp, car and boat trailer parking facilities.
They remain untouched, other than landscaping enhancements.
