• Rates start at $115 per week (Boat Park) and $130 per week (Wharf). Site allocation is subject to availability and is on a first booked, first allocated basis upon receipt of the EOI. Rental fees increase incrementally upon anniversary of occupation.

• All occupants must enter into a Hard Stand Use Deed of Agreement and pay bond prior to haul out and comply with all terms therein, including all tools and leads tested and tagged prior to use.
