John Harris CMM

Marina Manager

John has worked at MDL since 2019, managing both Bray and Windsor marinas. Before MDL, he managed and worked at other marinas on the Thames, and had previously been heavily involved in other areas of the business, including boat sales and lifting. This has given him a great understanding of customer needs. Previous to this John served in the Royal Navy for five years where he travelled the world and gained his sea legs, but these days is more at home on the river, which he's very passionate about. Given their beautiful settings, John says he couldn’t ask for a better working location.
