Momentum at Blue Water Cay continues to build as we move deeper into summer, keeping us on track for our December 1, 2025 grand opening and bringing us one step closer to delivering a world-class marina experience tailored for Bahamian boaters.

This month, our Category 5 hurricane-rated dry storage facility is taking shape, with interior geometry designed to house center consoles up to 55 feet long and over 50,000 lbs. Phase One is set to accommodate approximately 300 boats indoors, with Phase Two nearly doubling that capacity.

Meanwhile, inside the facility’s corner, 21 dedicated service slips are being readied for marine service and repair—including top-tier brands like Yamaha, Volvo, and Mercury—all fully protected from the elements.

Below your feet, construction is built to last. The concrete driving surface, designed for heavy daily load, is 12 inches thick, 6,000 psi, and reinforced with structural keyways for decades of trouble-free service.

We’re also elevating convenience—three 12,000-gallon fuel tanks, split between marine diesel and gasoline, are being installed. This means when your boat’s ready to go, it’ll already be fueled—eliminating the need for you to stop and fill up.

Lastly, to ensure long-term resilience, the entire site has been raised from 4–5 feet to about 9–10 feet above sea level to safeguard against storm surge.

With every beam, slab, and tank in place, Blue Water Cay is raising the bar for marina development in The Bahamas. For more information on reserving your spot at Blue Water Cay, please visit https://legendarybluewatercay.cottonsolution.com/reserve-dockage/ or call 850.585.4000

Momentum continues to build at Blue Water Cay Marina Resort as we move deeper into the summer construction season.

This month, dredging is actively underway in the main access channel—an essential step in ensuring smooth navigation for vessels entering and exiting the marina. This work will provide the depth needed to accommodate a range of boats and yachts with ease and safety.

Meanwhile, the Cat 5-rated dry storage facility continues to rise. Structural progress is clearly visible onsite as this state-of-the-art facility begins to take shape. Once complete, it will offer premium protection and convenience for boat owners, with advanced engineering designed to withstand the tropical weather conditions.

These milestones bring us another step closer to delivering a best-in-class marina destination in Nassau. Stay tuned as we continue shaping the future of boating at Legendary Marina Resort at Blue Water Cay.

The world’s largest marina forklift custom-built by Wiggins Lift Co. for Legendary Marina Resort at Blue Water Cay, is officially on its way to Nassau, The Bahamas. After months of precision planning and fabrication, this powerful piece of equipment is now en route to its permanent home, marking a new era for dry storage and marine operations in the region.

At over 80,000 pounds of lifting capacity, the Wiggins Marina Bull is not just a forklift, it’s a statement. Engineered to handle larger, heavier vessels with unmatched control and stability, this monumental machine positions Blue Water Cay at the forefront of marina innovation. It has been carefully designed to meet the demands of Blue Water Cay’s best-in-class dry stack storage system which is one of the largest and most advanced of its kind in The Bahamas, and the world.

The delivery of the forklift is more than a technical milestone; it symbolizes the momentum building across the entire Blue Water Cay property. Every detail, from infrastructure to amenity planning, is rooted in a bold vision to redefine what marina life can be—luxurious, efficient, and future-forward.

The arrival of the forklift is timed with the final stages of dry stack construction and marina infrastructure buildout. Once installed and operational, the forklift will be the driving force behind the seamless movement of vessels to and from storage built to serve both day-trippers and long-term residents alike.

As the Legendary Marina Resort at Blue Water Cay approaches its highly anticipated debut, this latest delivery offers a glimpse at the scale and ambition behind every detail of the project.

This unique structure will soon offer unmatched protection and convenience for boat owners with storage for boats up to 55 feet. Right now, steel erectors are in the last stages of placing the structural columns and boat racks before moving to the outer skin and roofing.

The shipstore building is also moving along as planned. This building will include customer restrooms, shipstore, marina dispatch, as well as other administrative offices.

The aluminum docks are fully installed, laying the foundation for world-class marina access and wet slip docking. At the same time, the dredging of the marina basin is complete and the channel dredging operations are underway, helping to ensure smooth entry and deep-water access for a wide range of vessels.

Work on the guard house and fuel infrastructure is also progressing, key pieces of the project that will contribute to the security, functionality, and full-service experience Blue Water Cay is designed to deliver.

In addition, the utility infrastructure is being constructed including stormwater and electrical facilities. The roadways are being mapped out to provide access and circulation throughout the property.

The Legendary Marina Resort in Blue Water Cay, Nassau, Bahamas, has made strides since its groundbreaking at the end of 2023. All Phase One floating docks were delivered by Marina Technologies (MTI), and installation is nearly complete. The $110 million project includes a marina and boat storage facility, a luxury resort and Nassau’s only Cat-5 rated dry storage stack.

Phase One will complete the dredging effort and half of the marina and the dry storage facility. Phase One docks include staging docks for the dry stack, a fuel dock and wet slips for vessels ranging from 55 feet to 130 feet. Later project phases will include docks for vessels up to 250 feet and completion of the dry stack, which is scheduled for late 2025. Phase One docks are MTI System D-260 for all mains and tees and System S-222 for all finger piers.

For decking, Legendary chose MTI’s sand-colored composite planks with grooved non-skid, 4-inch soft PVC fenders and corner bumpers while 18-inch diameter steel pipe piles anchor the new system. The dry storage facility will house what Legendary has described as the largest marina forklift built to date, which the company has enlisted Forklift Exchange and Wiggins Lift Co. to help it build.

The project is expected to create 200 local jobs in Nassau. The marina will also include 20 condos, 22 oceanfront villas, a 130-room hotel, pools, waterfront restaurants, a members-only lounge, dockside fuel and a concierge service.

NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS – Exciting progress is being made at Legendary Marina Resort Blue Water Cay, as construction of the state-of-the-art Dry Storage Facility continues to move forward. The construction of the steel structure continues moving steadily forward, and its completion will play an important role in finalizing Phase 1 of the development. Additional key components of the marina are also taking shape, such as the guardhouse, and the shipstore, further bringing the vision for this premier destination to life.

Meanwhile, installation of the aluminum docks for the wet slip docking is nearing completion. These docks are designed to accommodate larger vessels, with slips suitable for boats up to 130 feet in Phase 1 and 220 feet in Phase 2.

The Dry Storage Facility itself will securely house vessels up to 55 feet and is engineered to withstand Category 5 hurricane wind speeds, ensuring peace of mind for boat owners year-round. Phase 1 of construction is set to also include a host of on-site amenities including a tiki bar and cafe, shipstore, and more. With our 24 hour security, hurricane rated dry storage building, and concierge service, Legendary Marina Resort Blue Water Cay makes owning a boat in The Bahamas worry free!

NASSAU, THE BAHAMAS – Legendary Marina Resort Blue Water Cay in The Bahamas is proud to announce a significant milestone in the development of its state-of-the-art marina. This week marks the commencement of steel structure erection for the Dry Storage Facility, a crucial component of the resort’s ambitious expansion plans.

The Dry Storage Facility is rated to withstand Category 5 hurricane wind speeds. Its foundation consists of over 300 auger-cast piles, each 16 inches in diameter and extending more than 40 feet below the ground surface into solid rock layers. These deep foundations ensure that the weight of the boats and the wind loads on the building are safely transferred through the structure and into the ground. The piles are constructed in clusters, with some columns supported by as many as five auger-cast piles, creating an incredibly resilient foundation system.

“At Legendary Marina Resort, Blue Water Cay, we are dedicated to providing the finest marina facilities anywhere. The erection of the Dry Storage Facility is a milestone that represents the culmination of years of permitting, design, fabrication, and now, construction,” said Rodney Chamberlain, Lead Developer of Legendary Marina Resort Blue Water Cay.

The combination of advanced design codes and a commitment to excellence has resulted in the creation of a truly state-of-the-art dry storage building at Blue Water Cay.
Legendary is dedicated to providing the best marina facility, and the construction of the Dry Storage Facility is a testament to this commitment.
