The third phase of the Port of Everett’s Central Marina Improvements is well underway, reports the Port.
Earlier this month, American Construction began dredging the waterway to authorized depths in the Central Marina.
The public works contract to complete the Central Marina Improvements, was awarded to American Construction on September 11, 2018.
When complete, the Central Marina will feature a new Guest Dock 5, K-Dock and L-Dock as part of the improvements.
The Port expects that the work on Central Marina Improvements will be finished in mid-2019.
Background
The Central Marina Improvements project is intended to provide upgrades to the Port’s in-water infrastructure, and maintenance dredging to allow adequate draft for marina boaters.
In detail, Guest Dock 5 will parallel the Port’s new bulkheads and Fisherman’s Harbor esplanade, tying into the existing K-Dock gatehouse. Current P dock will be relocated and placed on the south side of Seiner Wharf and will be called L-Dock.
A work float currently in the North Marina will be re-purposed as an activity float, and tied next to Guest Dock 5. New K-Dock will have 70-foot finger floats on the east side of the dock, and side-tie berths on the west.
Marina basin maintenance dredging will also take place, ensuring adequate draft depths for the Port’s docks and fairway depths for boaters.
