Monaco, Port Hercule

Port Hercule, positioned in a well protected natural bay with some of the deepest water on the French Riviera, is a magnet for the sleek and the chic. When you think Monaco, you also think of the on-site Monaco Yacht Show and the Monaco Grand Prix, whose iconic Formula 1 course and famous chicane runs virtually on top of the quay wall. As such, Port Hercule soaks up media attention, and enjoys an influx of ever larger luxury boats whose owners are eager to see and be seen.

The Marinetek solution becomes the fourth pontoon system it has been delivered for Ports de Monaco, replacing a 6m wide x 64m long ‘U Pontoon’ installed in 2010. The old U Pontoon is relocated to Port Fontvieille, which is the second marina in Monaco. The new U Pontoon will be an eye-catcher – positioned slightly further west of the stunning Yacht Club de Monaco and, at 120m, nearly double the length of its predecessor.

The U Pontoon was manufactured by Marinetek Adriatic using six 5m wide x 20m long Super Yacht floating concrete pontoons secured with exceptionally large sinker anchors for strong, stable asymmetrical mooring; all 13 available yacht berths (6 x 50m, 1 x 40m, 5 x 30m and 1 x 18m) are on one side. Two separate 80m berths run alongside but are not connected to the pontoon.
