Management

Marina consultancy

India has plenty of coastline and few working marinas. We advise developers, state tourism boards and private clubs on building and running one, from feasibility and berth mix to the first boat tying up.

Where we help

Indian marina projects mostly fail on one of three things: the wrong berth mix, an unmapped permissions path, or an operating model that ignores the monsoon. We address all three before any piling starts.

  • Site feasibility, bathymetry review and wave-climate assessment
  • Demand study and berth mix, based on sizes that will actually fill
  • Master planning, pontoon layout and hardstand sizing
  • CRZ, maritime board and environmental permissions strategy
  • Tender documents and contractor evaluation
  • Construction supervision and commissioning
  • Operating model, tariff structure and staffing plan

Pontoons and jetties

We specify floating pontoons, gangways, fingers and mooring hardware to suit local tide and swell, and supervise installation. Exposure, not catalogue price, decides between concrete and aluminium floats.

Operations after opening

A marina is a hospitality business on water. We help set up berth licensing, fuel and pump-out, security and the maintenance calendar, and can run the facility for you.

Questions

Frequently asked

Which permissions does a marina need?

Usually CRZ clearance, state maritime board approval, port or fisheries consent depending on the water body, and environmental clearance above set thresholds. It varies by state, so we map it at feasibility stage.

How long does a project take?

Feasibility and permissions usually take 12 to 24 months. Construction takes 6 to 18, depending on scale and any breakwater work. A much shorter quote probably leaves out clearances.

Do you take on small private jetties?

Yes. A 20-berth club jetty gets the same engineering care as a large marina, with scope and fee to match.
