Orientering vedr. havnefogedens sygefravær og bemanding

Der har gennem en periode været sygefraværsopfølgning med Morten, senest med deltagelse fra jobcenteret. Han afprøver nu andre arbejdsfunktioner i lighed med andre jobcenterforløb og fra 1.10.2025 aflønnes han ikke aktuelt af Bønnerup Havn. Denne udmelding er afstemt og koordineret med Morten.

For at sikre havnens drift er Klaus ansat som havneassistent på fuld tid og er godt i gang. Mats fortsætter i sit seniorjob (14 timer/uge), og Lars Hotter Petersen samt Karsten Pedersen bidrager med konsulenttimer. Jeg deltager selv i driften efter behov.

Træffetiden på havnekontoret er uændret: hverdage kl. 8.00–12.00. Mail og sms kan benyttes uden for dette tidsrum. Vi følger situationen tæt og arbejder for en løsning, der tilgodeser både Mortens helbred og havnens behov. Det er fortsat forventningen, at Morten vender tilbage snarest muligt.

Spørgsmål til ovenstående ske til undertegnede.

Formand for fondsbestyrelsen,
Tina Andersen.

Background material master plan

The purpose of the master plan is to create a robust framework for further development. The plan is thus not an exact map of all areas and sub-projects, but rather a plan that emphasizes:

• A strong physical vision for the port's development and its connection to the city
• An overall structural plan
• An identification of future sub-projects
• Stage plan for the development
• Overall budget for future sub-projects

Landscape architecture firm LYTT assists with facilitation of the process and preparation of the product

Many people have already stopped by to see what we're doing in the outer pool, so here are some pictures and drawings.

The plan is to create two 7 meter spaces, six 6 meter spaces and one 8 meter space. As in Inderhavnen, walkways will be built between every second berth. There will therefore be more spaces for the very large boats.

We are in the process of lining the quay and deck and the piles have arrived, so now we're waiting for Jettelys to come and drive them in.

We are very much looking forward to having boats on the sites, but also to welcoming more of the larger boats during the season.

The pilot crane will remain in place for now, as after good dialog with the fishing association's board in September 2024, based on the amended local plan, it was agreed that the pilot crane would remain where it was for the time being - but it will be marked so that there are no yachts in the way. If this becomes a challenge, the use and location of the pilot crane will be reconsidered

In the top of the pictures, the inner pool is well filled, so it will be nice to have space in the outer pool

The government's fishing ban in the Kattegat threatens local communities and one of Norddjurs municipality's most visited attractions, Bønnerup Harbour

The Board of Trustees of the Port of Bønnerup is very concerned about the government's decision to introduce far-reaching fishing restrictions in the Kattegat. This move threatens not only the livelihood of fishermen, but also the small local community and the Danish supply chain with our local fishmonger in focus.

For generations, fishermen in the Kattegat have created a sustainable fishing culture based on knowledge, experience and respect for the sea. The restrictions of recent years have already had a big impact, but the new decision to reduce the allowed fishing area to less than 10 percent will be a big burden for the small local community - especially for the smaller fishermen who already have the most gentle fishing methods and lowest CO₂ emissions.

Our small local community is in many ways dependent on life at Bønnerup Harbor, both the derived income for the port, but also the entire tourism, which is closely linked to the excursion destination with the local charm of the harbor.

It is with growing concern that the government does not consider rural areas, which are already hard pressed for survival. Just as the experience from previous closures unfortunately does not show the expected resurgence of life on the seabed.

At the same time, it is very worrying in terms of Americanization and lack of factual knowledge when a Danish minister appears on far-reaching media with erroneous knowledge about fishing methods. There are huge differences between the many types of vessels and trawl gear. It is important to take different perspectives and scientific evidence into account when creating restrictions with such far-reaching consequences.

Danish fishermen are sacrificed - while foreign trawlers continue

The new restrictions will hit Danish fishermen hard, while foreign vessels will continue to be allowed to fish in the Kattegat. In addition, the global climate accounts must be taken into account so that restrictions are not made that overall burden more than they benefit. This is an unsustainable situation that creates inequality and harms local businesses.

Bønnerup Port's Board of Trustees strongly wants a protection of the Danish marine environment based on knowledge and effective measures and with a consideration of the derived effects - Here a local community that faces the derived consequences.

The Board of Trustees of Bønnerup Harbour urges the government to reconsider its decision and instead ensure a sustainable future for Danish fisheries. We demand an environmental policy and a fisheries policy based on scientific facts and fair conditions with a focus on local communities and tested knowledge.

We want development, not dismantling of our local fishermen and our small community! And we want the necessary environmental measures to be based on factual knowledge

Bønnerup Harbor

Tina Lykke Andersen
Chairman of the board

Here are some pictures from construction team Karsten's renovation of the bridgehead on the D-bridge. We didn't get any pictures of the demolition of the old bridge as it went so fast. We say thank you very much for the fantastic work. In the last picture, Mats had snuck away from the harbor crane when he smelled the Dagmar pie.

We have a mast shed at Bønnerup Harbor.

This was achieved with the help of a number of sponsors who contributed building materials, while a group of volunteers took care of the construction. The photographer managed to gather 3 out of 4 builders. Bent has led the construction, while Charles, Bjarne and Hotter have helped, although they barely had time as they also had to make the bridgehead on the D bridge... In fact, Hotter had so little time that he did not make it into the picture.

Bent put his mast on the new mast stand to test the new mast trolley and make sure he could get into the shed with the mast without bumping into anything.

When you put the mast in the shed, it's important that you remove the salinghorn and other protruding parts before the mast is put in place. You also need to stop by the port office to get a label for the mast and you can also get the code for the lock here.

At Bønnerup Harbor, it is possible to have your boat craned up or in as a permanent resident. But it is of course also possible to come as a guest and get the boat up. This applies both if you need to show off the boat for sale or if the boat needs a little love on land. The crane can lift 30 tons and boats up to 6.5 meters wide.

For questions about lifting options, winter rack, weekly rack rental, or shorter lifts, please contact the harbor master at havnefoged@boennerup-lbh.dk or by phone at 23290760.

Port of Bønnerup has applied for 10 rescue ladders from Trygfonden and has been granted 8. We expect to receive the rescue ladders in the spring of 2025. When the ladders are delivered, we will install them as soon as possible, so we can start the 2025 season a little safer.

Welcome to Bønnerup Harbor - New harbor master hired

We are pleased to announce that Morten Alring Martinussen has been hired as the new harbor master at the Port of Bønnerup.

Morten brings a solid background with coordinating, administrative and practical skills that we can look forward to benefiting from at the Port of Bønnerup. He also has many years of maritime experience that we can draw on. Finally, Morten has a good sense of working with a board of directors from his own many years of board experience.

Morten says:

"My name is Morten Alring Martinussen and I grew up in Gjerrild. I've been coming to Bønnerup and the Port of Bønnerup since my childhood and think it's a fantastic place to be. There are many good things happening at the Port of Bønnerup and I look forward to being part of the continued development of the port. I'm also very much looking forward to working with those who work at and around the port, as well as all the volunteers at the port."

Welcome to Morten

We are convinced that Morten's passion and commitment will contribute positively to the Port of Bønnerup and its future development.

We encourage everyone to welcome Morten when he starts on September 1, 2024.
