  2. Hi all I have a 26 foot keeler moored at Little Bucklands Beach in Auckland. I enjoy weekend cruising either day sails or overnight. If anyone is interested in coming along as crew, please get in touch. Please drop me an email if you are interested or finding out more. iangabriel1968@gmail.com Thanks Ian.
  3. I'm hauling out over the next few days so my apologies if I don't reply to any comments for a few days.
  4. Thanks NZ Tiger. Would be interested to hear what you find out.
  5. Thanks kiwi_jon Talking to boat owners with the same issue at the weekend it would appear that this issue may all be due to the marina extension. The mooring area appears to be being pushed out to allow for the extension & then the outlying moorings being "chopped" off
  6. That's interesting. My mooring was surveyed 12 months ago & was given a 3 year survey.
  7. Thanks Island Time. You are right on the money.
  8. Sorry having trouble putting a pointer on your map. Maybe I can't actually do it. If you look at the boat in the top of the picture then move to the one to the left of it. Go straight down from that one. (quite a big gap) I am the boat straight down & fractionally right from that.
  9. I was out at the boat today. There is a line of moorings which are the closest to the channel & I am in that line. All the moorings seem to be jammed in there so the next row in in my opinion are about as close as they can be to mine to give swinging room. What is interesting though is the mooring that is I think 2 rows in from mine but the closest to the ramp has been told that he is 7 metres outside the mooring area so has to move to Big Bucks or up to Pakuranga while I am apparantly 39 metres outside the mooring area.
  10. Thanks for your comment Frank. Mine is a Cavalier 26. Without digging out the paperwork to check I know that there are 3 train wheels on the seabed with 3 different weights of chain before the connection to the main mooring rope. I have had this boat on the mooring for over 2 years & the previous owner used the same mooring with the same boat for an unknown time before that. He was renting the mooring before I bought the boat from a guy who previously had a Farr 1020 on it & I understand that the mooring was configured for that boat. So the short answer is no my boat is shorter and lig
  11. Thanks dutyfree and I totally agree. The problem is that all the boats around me seem very close. Maybe more moorings have been squeezed in over the years. I reckon if my mooring was moved 5 or 10 metres further in there would probably be a collision as the boats swung. But yeah there was a site there & now there is not so why is that my fault & if I have to move then why should I pay for it! Thanks Greg for your comments. Yes totally agree that as owner I am responsible for costs at survey time. When I purchased the mooring it was nearly out of survey but had it resurveyed about a
  12. Hi everyone I'm just after some advice if I may please. I currently have a keeler on a swing mooring at Little Bucklands Beach which I bought approximately 2 years ago and did the standard transfer paperwork through Auckland Transport & the previous owner. I have now been told by the Harbour Master's office that my mooring has "crept" over time 39 metres towards the ferry channel. The mooring now needs to be resited however there are no sites remaining in Little Bucklands Beach & my mooring will need to be moved to either Big Bucklands Beach or the Pakuranga Mooring area which is u
