The Portitxol members' assembly has ratified the reform project, which will involve a significant renovation of the facilities, valued at 10 million euros, and which has caused tension and confrontation within the entity. According to some, it is a project that “reduces the model of social boating, because more moorings for large lengths are being made,” laments a historic member like Jaume Garau. But, according to the board and another part of the members, “it preserves the essence of the club and the facility does not grow outwards.” “80% of the moorings will continue to be less than eight meters,” explains the president of the Palma club, Pep Santander.

The situation of moorings in Port d’Andratx has set off alarms among entities linked to the maritime world. ADN Mediterrani and the Associació d’Amarristes d’Andratx have decided to join forces to demand a solution for the nearly one hundred owners of small boats affected by the changes derived from the new port management.

Pollença City Council has stepped up its efforts to address the proliferation of uncontrolled anchoring and abandoned boats in Pollença Bay. The Council has promoted the 2nd Bulky Waste Cleanup Day as part of the Pollença Coastline Environmental Awareness and Recovery Project, with the collaboration of Adalmo as the authorized manager and a team of professional divers. During the day, concrete blocks, wheels, chains, and buoys, among other materials, were removed.

The Government has issued a resolution to prevent moorings granted for private use in autonomously managed ports from being used for profit, such as the tourist rental of private boats. The measure is adopted following the entry into force of the state resolution allowing private recreational vessels to temporarily change their use to commercial, and in exercise of the exclusive powers held by the autonomous community over the public port domain.
