While support from the boating fraternity is poor (and disappointing) in numbers others are still fighting.
For those interested here's where they presented to ACC, watch from around 18.25

Here's an update and more can be read here https://www.ayba.org.nz/blog/post/103082/april-2023-update/
"Prior to the Super City there were 8 Councils in the Auckland Region and over-seeing our coastline and regional parks was the Auckland Regional Council. Today there are 21 Local Boards making local decisions for their area and there is no co-ordinated Regional Plan for the protection of our coastal and marine environment.
In the Auckland Council’s own words:
“Space in Coastal Locations are increasingly attractive to alternative development!”
Such a policy threatens many of the Club and other facilities currently on “Desirable Coastal Land”! Auckland’s Unitary Plan endorses “Intensification” – another threat.
This is why the AYBA and the Auckland Marina Users Assn. Inc. are demanding a Regional Plan – Not just of the haul-out facilities but of all our Coastal resources for the ongoing and future access to our greatest recreational facility – the Harbour & Gulf – and for the future well-being of our marine environment and the well-being of a great part of our population who finds sanctuary by and on the sea."
