Jaime Portolés, Chairman of the Real Club Nautico Denia y Fernando Calatayud, Club manager met with Vicent GrimaltMayor of Dénia for support and try to avoid the privatization of yacht clubs that seeks the new regional law ports.
Portolés discussed the current situation in which the club is located, unlike other localities to Real Club Nautico Denia you would 9 years to meet at the time of renewing its concession in one of the parts of the club, and 13 on the other.
The new law could leave without Dénia yacht club, no heated pool without Municipal Water Sports School to give opportunities to entrepreneurs turn great sports space for large yachts and large boats in a harbor.
The president of Dianense club recalled that the club, believe it or not the population is packed with boats less than 12 meters, ie vessels used largely to the sport and small for the enjoyment of families and partners mid-level boats, unlike beliefs.
It is a club open to the city, "the elitist image should not fall on us"Said Portolés, so welcome to visit and walk around the club, calling it one of the most pleasant areas of the city.
Portolés seeks the protection of the city council, and specifically in Vicent Grimalt Rafa Carrió, First Deputy Mayor, who will put their knowledge to higher levels and inform Portolés of the new criteria, they said.
Jaime Portolés, as a member of the Association of Nautical Club of Valencia (ACNCV), fighting for the new law is not carried out and yacht clubs can continue to promote the sport in different disciplines practiced at sea, as sailing, canoeing, rowing or fishing.
If the new reform of the port law can not be avoided, Portolés would be forced today to stop investing in the club and not spend money on sports, end the Municipal School and close the pool, all with the purpose of being able to Bid for the club for years to come.
President of the Real Club Nautico Denia does not understand the interest of the Generalitat Valenciana to reform its port law, adopted less than a year and a half, to invite tenders for all yacht clubs once they expire concessions regardless of the social function they perform some non-profit organization that promotes the development of sailing in our country.
