A marina on the River Hamble is to hold an open day for everyone interested in finding out more about what goes on there.
Universal Marina, which is in Crableck Lane at Sarisbury Green, has planned the open day for May 4.
Land yachting, a sailing simulator and a campervan converted to a bar that will be playing music will all be on site for the day.
Lauren Reiske from the marina said: “The idea is to have a fun day and get more people to see the marina to see what we have going on. It should be really fun and it’s free.
“There is a serious side to the day concerning boat maintenance with the RNLI who will be here doing safety checks on life jackets for free.
“This day is for everyone to come and see the marina. We are off the beaten track, so it’ll be great for people with boats to see where we are and what we have here.”
The open day will run from 10am-5pm. For more details contact the marina on either 01489 574272 or email lauren@universalmarina.co.uk.
