Priscilla II 343 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Staying in your bubble = staying out of trouble. Pretty simple. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deep Purple 492 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Yes those were the rules, the rules have changed. People need to return home and obey the new rules. They are pretty clear Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,117 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Nope. If you are already out, living aboard, you are still supposed to stay there. As at this morning, I just called the maritime unit and asked. You can go home ( if you have one) but then must stay there. Otherwise you can not move except for safety, medical, or food.

Ex Machina 316 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 So it’s not possible to go to Fiji , raro etc or to Q town , Wellington or wherever for a break but it should be ok to go cruising ? im an ex Aucklander and have many friends and family there . I’ve also worked at several outfits that built large boats , power and sail in auck . Im not anti either of the above but sometimes understand the anti Auckland sentiment and the anti large boat view Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,117 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 How is it ok to go cruising? You have to stay where you are. If at home, your stuck there. Same at batch or boat. You have to stay where you are , in your bubble. I fail to see why this is so hard to follow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone has had their recreational activities curtailed , from bridge players to tigermoth enthusiasts and maybe we will see some of them on the news or in the media soon ...”.illegal bridge tournament uncovered at banes wokes and wankers warehouse in wairau valley “ for example Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AJ Oliver 154 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Come on now Mr. Knot, you do have an interesting perspective - well, mostly But you need to be respectful and play nice For myself, I'd like you to be able to stick around for a while. (On lockdown here by the Sweetwater Seas, the Admiral and I have been watching a good bit of old US film "noir' on YouTube. Dark stuff, a lot of it) May you find peace, or peace find you - whichever comes first Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Here by the Sweetwater Seas, for now all the yacht club facilities are closed; but the marine service folks are still allowed to splash boats, and we are still allowed to be out there. These rules are state-by-state in the US; and they can change at any time. Wheels et al make a good point about recreational boaters tying up rescue/first responder resources. Your attitude of "all in this together" will get you through it. Love ya to pieces Quote Link to post Share on other sites

darkside 55 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Will recreational boating come back under Level 3? How about full access to marinas for maintenance etc? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fish 0 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Wait till Thursday, details of L3 will look like should be announced then (tomorrow, already, how did that happen?) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fish 0 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 No no, tomorrow they should announce what level 3 means, i.e. its requirements are. What can you do, and specifically what businessmen can plan for to start doing again. Monday is the announcement if any areas get to come out of level 4 on the following Wednesday, or if we get to stay home and split firewood with an axe cause we can't get to the gym or hire a log splitter... (I've got an epic pile of rounds to go, but I'm gonna be rip'd by the end of lock down...) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
