NEW pontoons could soon be floating in the Town marinas as part of a £1m. programme.

ST SAMPSON’S Marina contractor Miller & Baird is to take the States to court to claim about £3.5m.

THE States is owed £400,000 by Miller & Baird, the company which built St Sampson’s Marina, said Public Services minister Bill Bell.

Turning St Sampson's Harbour into a marina wasn't a universally popular decision, but after nearly 12 months in use islanders' hearts have started to warm to it. Nick Mollet jumped in at the deep end and spoke to those in the know

TWO years after the States approved St Sampson's Marina, it is still not ready.

THE gates on the new St Sampson's marina are operating correctly.

DIFFICULTIES with the gate mechanism have added to delays on the St Sampson's Marina project.

BETTER advice is needed for capital-spending projects. Deputy Dave Jones said some people within Guernsey Technical Services should be considering their position after works in St Sampson's Harbour cost 50% more than was budgeted.

THE St Sampson's Marina will not be fully operational until the end of the year.

A FRACTURED ballast tank and an uneven surface bed were blamed for two barges submerging in St Sampson's Harbour.
