Hull Marina

Hull Marina is a marina for pleasure boats situated in the English city of Kingston upon Hull. It was opened in 1983 on the site of the former Railway Dock and Humber Docks[1] and is managed by British Waterways Marinas Limited (BWML).[2]

Humber Dock Marina

The marina is home to 270 berths, spread across Humber Dock and Railway Dock,[1] as well as a boat yard serviced by a 50 tonne boat hoist. Access through the lock to the River Humber is possible at high water ±3 hours.[2] The basin outside the lock has a "waiting wall" for vessels to tie up to while waiting to enter the lock, although this dries out at low water.[3]

Railway Dock and Humber Dock are separated by a lifting pedestrian bridge which is lifted to allow access for watercraft.[4]
