MDL Marinas, Europe‘s leading marina operator, is getting ready for a year of celebration as the company marks 40 successful years since the opening of its first marina. Purchased in 1973, Penton Hook Marina in Surrey has since been joined by 18 marinas as well as boatyards in prime locations across the UK, as well as two first-class superyacht marinas in MDL’s Mediterranean network. A third Mediterranean site, Marina del Gargano in Italy is scheduled to open this spring, with the new addition seeing MDL network of marinas grow to 22.
