Palma.—The Balearic Minister for Tourism, Jaime Martinez, has said that Ports IB, the Balearic government body which controls the non state, Balearic Port Authority, ports, is in the process of investing 7.7 million euros over a period of two years in improving and expanding the services offered at nine of the region’s marinas.
Martinez explained that the body knows that the 24,000 moorings it manages in the Balearics, are  not enough to meet demand during the summer season and that the number of moorings has to be increased in order to enable the nautical industry to continue to flourish.
