What to do once your mooring has been leased
- Let the Harbourmaster's Office know. We will remove the listing from the website.
- If you have leased out your mooring, provide the Harbourmaster's Office with temporary user's contact and vessel details.
Moorings that are leased must still be inspected and authorised. The new vessel must be suitable for the mooring.
If payment for a lease ceases, or a vessel owner fails to remove their vessel from your mooring once the lease has ended, Environment Canterbury is unable to become involved. These matters are considered civil disputes between the parties who entered into the lease agreement.
