Bellingham Marine, world renowned marina builder, announced the release of its 2011 calendar. Originally published in 2008 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the company’s first marina project, the calendars quickly became popular and are now a yearly event.

The glossy wall calendar features beautiful images of marinas from around the world that were built by Bellingham. Each year the company holds a photo contest and features the best of the images submitted in its annual calendar. Winners of the contest receive a cash award as well as photo credit.

The contest is open to the public; anyone over 18 can submit a photo. “The last two years the response from the public has been overwhelming,” said Roxie Comstock Manager of Business Enhancement for Bellingham Marine. “We had well over 200 photos submitted this year.”

According to Bellingham Marine, distribution of the calendar covers the globe reaching boaters, marina owners, developers, engineers and other industry professionals and enthusiasts on every continent.

This year’s calendar features Rybovich in Palm Beach, Florida; Half Moon Bay Marina in Auckland, New Zealand; Harbour Town Yacht Basin on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina, Marina YE in Melbourne, Australia; Perrotti Park in Newport, Rhode Island; Opua Marina in Bay of Islands, New Zealand; Island Moorings Marina in Port Aransas, Texas; Homer Small Boat Harbor in Homer, Alaska; Glorietta Bay Marina in Coronado, California; d’Albora Marina at Rushcutters Bay in Sydney, Australia; Sunroad Marina in San Diego, California; Port Ludlow Marina in Port Ludlow, Washington; La Playita Marina in Panama City, Panama and Yas Marina in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
