Last Sunday, volunteers from ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove were pleased to participate in the final phase of the oil spill cleanup on Siloso Beach. Joined by Minister Grace Fu, Minister Alvin Tan, and nearly 200 volunteers from various community groups including Sentosa Development Corporation, Singapore Canoe Federation, Singapore Paddle Club, National Environment Agency, Public Hygiene Council, Singapore Environment Council (SEC), Sport Singapore, Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment, Singapore, Ministry of Trade and Industry (Singapore), it was a rewarding day as volunteers worked hard to remove tarballs from the beach. It was truly inspiring to be a part of such a meaningful event, and to work alongside numerous dedicated individuals and organisations to contribute to the environment. Due to the overwhelming nationwide response, some of our volunteers were unable to join us at this event. We appreciate your support and enthusiasm and we look forward to seeing you at the next event. #ONE15Marina #Sentosa

On 8 June, our Senior Marina Director, James Roy hosted delegates from Korea’s Siheung City Hall, including Mayor Lim Byeong-taek and his team. During the 2-hour presentation and marina tour, James shared successes and challenges in operating a marina and took them around our back-of-house. Mayor Lim and his team even witnessed firsthand how we launch yachts from our dry stack. We are incredibly humbled to have the opportunity to host our Korean guests and to be recognised as a marina industry leader. This would not have been possible without the support of our Members, boaters, stakeholders and staff. 

The recent oil spill on 14 June was an unprecedented case of oil spillage in the waters of Singapore. Our dedicated team and volunteers had been working tirelessly over the Hari Raya long weekend to clean up the oil spill and deployed oil booms to minimise the spread into the marina, and we have also actively engaged relevant government authorities to support our efforts to clean the Marina area. A big thank you to our volunteers who made all the difference in our clean-up efforts.     As stewards of the ocean, we recognise the importance of a healthy underwater eco-system, and we are working closely with our Eco-advisors to monitor and protect our Marina’s biodiversity.

Our Regional General Manager, Jonathan Sit, recently shared his insights on building a successful marina in Asia on a panel at the recent Asia-Pacific Superyacht Summit held in Hong Kong.

Organised by SuperYacht Times, the 2-day event was attended by over 200 delegates from Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Europe and was a great networking opportunity for the Asian and global superyacht community.
