Sailing Centre takes shape.

Something spectacular is taking shape near the harbour in Pwllheli. By Lleyn standards, the 8.3 million pound investment is enormous and will increase the opportunities for the outdoor sector in Gwynedd and boost the local economy. Controversial and much delayed though it is, it will soon provide for national and even international sailing events and establish the area as a destination for world class sailors. It is also planned to be a key building in which to hold wider community events and activities. We are hoping that some of these visitors find their way down to Aberdaron and want to stay in Manaros or Glandwr



The video above was taken late last year, but Peter visited the site yesterday and took these photos of the current build which has progressed a long way.



This development is distinct from the harbour, which is full of power boats and is served by the Pwllheli Sailing Club building which remains. This new building faces east and looks towards Pen-ychain and Hafan y Mor (Butlins if you are of a certain age).
