The Northland Regional Council has established minimum mooring / vessel restrictions:
1 tonne block is suitable for vessels up to 7m (23ft)
2 tonne block is suitable for vessels between 7m and 12m (40ft)
4 tonne block is suitable for vessels between 12m and 18m (60ft)
There are various “blocks/anchor” weights in use, also, other mooring components are important for the effectiveness of moorings, so, if in doubt, check it out – contact Moorings Northland.
Check out the notes section under each mooring for further useful information about the mooring.
Also, be sure to check out the Maps section of each mooring – choose the “satellite” map to see the location of a mooring.
Be sure to review your obligations about moorings before buying, renting and leasing.
