Village plan envisions world-class marina


"Islamorada officials envision the Plantation Yacht Harbor Marina at Founders Park could be the premiere boating destination outside of Key West.

To get there, it will take increases in fees to rent slips, construction of an onsite restaurant, bar and ship store and an aggressive marketing campaign.

It will also take hundreds of thousands of dollars from village reserve funds, which could put off other capital projects, like road paving, for some time. Even then, it could be five years before the marina makes a significant profit."
