Legacy Harbour Marina Reopens After Hurricane Ian
Legacy Harbour Marina Reopens After Hurricane Ian reports the reopening of a Florida marina after years of rebuilding following Hurricane Ian in 2022. The article describes extensive destruction, including media accounts saying the facility was demolished or ripped apart and that hundreds of pieces of debris were floating in the water. It took years to restore the waterfront, and the marina finally resumed operations in May after a $15 million redevelopment of its 13-acre site. Rick Budd, CEO of AIRN Management, said the May 2026 reopening represents significant reinvestment in Fort Myers’ waterfront and a long-term commitment to the local boating community. The report also references earlier online posts by boaters describing losses of vessels, including a 42-foot Grand Banks pushed into debris. The reopening marks a return of the marina as a homeport for boaters traveling Florida’s west coast.
