On the plus side though, the main ramp in town now has a double sided pontoon and has been fixed up, so at least you get something for youre money this time.

Yip.. Its is the time of user pays!... That sort of thing I don't mind paying for!
Agreed TSK. Last time they tried it on without doing any repairs etc and it got canned due to complaints.
Yip all good with paying, $8 is a bit steep imo
Bet ya the parking guy still goes across on the ferry to write tickets galore on the other side Mate got one for WOF it was a day over
And car was parked there for 10 mins. That sucked ! That ticket writer was a dick all holiday period. You guessed it did same next day then got told his pedigree from many by standers who d had similar experiences with him
Thames council are a crock of shite in my opinion. They seem to be doing everything in their power to make peoplke want to stay away from Coromandel.
As far as I am aware they dont have wofs on their agenda though, or even within their powers. Thats the cops dept. surely.
The charges are to park your vehicle with boat trailer in designated areas only, so you could still get around it by taking trailer home once you launch. Big pain in the arrse though
Is it the same over at Cooks?
Good question GA. I havent seen or heard anything about the other ramps. Think it is only the main town ramp in whiti, as they just spent some money on it. I will try and find out asap.
I know they used to charge They may have flagged it . We launch off the beach now . Bro in law has a house by fire brigade HQ at cooksQuote:

Only the main ramp in Whitianga is being charged for.
Fairly reasonable i thought. Especially the annual fee if your a local.
Kinloch will be over $300 to launch for the year coming, trouble with Taupo if it comes up you need a safe haven to retrieve from. About $20 per day
