2022 November December Marina World

FLOATING STRUCTURES
A floating café, to be built near the
homes, has attracted interest from a gin
distillery.
or launch site is needed. This
technology developed for on-water
construction allows for a 10 to 15
week assembly period, without the
cost of dry land access, cranes,
trucks, road fees and ecological
damage that occurs while launching
large vessels onto the water.
The houses will have a
maintenance-free polyethylene UV
protected ‘hull’ and feature 5H treated
timber and marine grade stainless
steel fittings and fixtures, which
should also require no maintenance.
Drinking water comes from a
desalination/purification system (no
water bills) and electricity from solar
panels. All sewage is macerated and
purified but houses will be connected to
mains sewers so as to ensure absolute
clearance from the marina.
The townhouses, designed by Shape
Architects, have three or four bedrooms
and exclusive access to a shared
pontoon, and the Dockside apartment
complex includes a swimming pool and
an entertainment pontoon, gymnasium,
rooftop events and function space.
It has stunning views of the marina,
township and across the St Vincent
Gulf. The five-storey complex, with 52
apartments, has been designed by
Studio Nine architects.
“Our vision is for Dockside Port
Vincent to become a draw card in its
own right and a catalyst for regional
tourism and service operators to drive
economic activity in the region,” Villis
explained. “It will be the perfect home
base for sailing and nautical events, as
well as being located on the Walk and
Yorke trail and alongside the 300 million
year old granite boulders, known as
The Erratics.”
“We have had significant interest in
the project so far,” he confirmed.
