We are stating to plan our 2024 season and are seeking advice about haul out and store ashore options in French Polynesia. I have sent an enquiry to Marina Taina thus far but keen to explore all options.

Hi Simon and Sally,

A few years ago we hauled Darramy out in Raiatea. There are two yards there. CTI and le Carinage.  I think there is a length limit in CTI, and the haul out equipment at Le Carinage was primitive, but worked. They did struggle with our 2.3 metre draught. I recall another yard in the Tuamotos which you can Google.

Sail safe

Thank Brian I will follow up on this and other leads sent to me by email.
