Skandia Cowes Week 2008 East Cowes Marina are now taking bookings for Cowes Week 2008, which this year runs from Friday 1st until Saturday 9th August. We take bookings for a 9-day package, which includes electricity and berthing rafted within our Visitor Area or on our numerous hammerhead pontoons.

Limited car parking is also available. A number of individual finger berths do become available and can be requested (but not booked) in advance.   Subject to availability and a £100 premium these will be allocated shortly before Cowes Week. The cost for this full 9-day package is £62 per metre including VAT.

For more information, or to make a reservation please call us now on 01983 293 983. We just ask for a £75 deposit to make the booking and the balance is payable by 1st June 2008.

Whether you're racing or just spectating we offer sheltered berthing with 'club style' washroom facilities. The Lifeboat pub overlooking the marina will be serving freshly cooked local produce, breakfasts, hog roast, barbecues and there will be live music there each evening of Cowes Week.

Access to West Cowes during the week is easy with a free Riverbus (for competitors only) or by taking one of the Sally Water Taxis.   For a bit of exercise, and at no cost there is always the option of a short walk to the Chain Ferry.

This year we will be issuing East Cowes Marina wristbands to the crews of all boats staying at the Marina to access the facilities.

Declarations can be made online at the Internet points in the Marina reception or wireless internet access is available through BT Openzone.
