Hi Ross,
The MSQ Area Manager has provided some advice on this. He has stated the key points are:
- that any boat does not exceed 2.5m (beam ) on the face of the pontoon adjoining the
navigation corridor
- any vessel moored to the pontoon must remain 1.5m away from line of adjoining property
boundary
The advice that was issued at the time has recommended that 6 x 4.5 m vessels were suitable for
the pontoon based on the engineering. If they were to exceed these parameters then they
should consult the designer / engineer but exceeding this would be a council issue not MSQ.
I hope this helps you in some way. Please let me know if there is any other information you
need.
Regards
Gary

Hi Gary
Following our conversation attached are the relevant pages, I have also attached a copy of the
foreshore map showing the two pontoons and the total harbour area.
We are needing clarification of part 10
Does this mean only 6 boats of no greater length than 4.5 meters or 6 x 4.5 meters which covers

the total 27 meter usable foreshore harbour area?

Are you able to provide the document that you are referencing the size of the vessels from so I can find out some more information. If it was MSQ it may have a section where they work and then I could go to them and find out what standards they are using when referencing the size. The only other recommendation I would have is to contact the manufacturer or installer of the jetty/pontoon.

Importance: High
Hi
We have two pontoons at Noosa and we have a question regarding the boat size use for the
pontoon size. Our pontoons are 6.2m long and we have an owner who has a boat that is slightly
longer. So when looking at the application for the pontoons back in 2007 it states a size as shown
below, we are wanting clarification on this if possible as we are not sure what the 6 x 4.5 meters
actually means.
When looking around the general area most pontoons have boats that slightly extend past the
ends, is this an issue?
