Holyhead Marina Ltd v Farrer and All Other Persons Claiming or Being Entitled to Claim Damages in Connection With Storm "Emma" Striking Holyhead Marina on 1 and 2 March 2018 [2021] EWCA Civ 1585

Is a marina a dock?

In March 2018 Storm Emma hit Holyhead from the north-east and damaged the marina in Holyhead Harbour and 89 craft therein. The claimant was the owner or lessee of that marina. Anticipating many claims totalling some £5 million, it had issued proceedings seeking a limitation of its liability to £550,000 pursuant to section 191 of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995.
