Important Information:

Moorings Northland (2011) Limited (MNL) payment terms are 14 days from invoice date unless otherwise arranged.
A Certificate of Inspection will only be issued upon full payment of the inspection and service invoice.
A Romalpa clause applies; title on all goods supplied will remain the property of MNL until full payment of invoice.
The customer shall be liable to pay all expenses including legal costs incurred in the recovery of overdue amounts.
A customer’s inspection and service authorisation (including received by email or phone) will remain binding unless cancelled in writing.
The customer accepts responsibility for their decisions, information and instructions provided and that MNL may rely on this, and while all care and responsibility will be taken by MNL, no liability or consequential loss will attach to MNL for loss or damage.
All measurements carried out during inspections are taken with care but are approximations only.
Non-standard, multiple, or irregular blocks and remote moorings may incur additional charges.
Any customer's requirement to deviate from the minimum design standards must be provided in writing prior to our inspection and include approval from the NRC's maritime officer.
MNL may vary mooring design to suit local conditions and safety.
MNL reserves the right to periodically review prices without notification, and subject to market forces.
After a service we are unable to control the mooring use or environmental conditions and therefore no liability will be accepted for any mooring failures.
Mooring rode above the waterline and ensuring there is sufficient swing room is the responsibility of the mooring owner.

Our transparent fee structure delivers best customer value and ensures our cost reflect the time and commitment of resources to a mooring service.

Our service is delivered using experienced crew working to professional standards. We lift and re-deploy your mooring with virtually 100% accuracy. Note, we replace the headrope if the anti-chafe or thimble is damaged and double weld all shackles for added security. We only use the highest standard independently tested and certified, quality assured components. Following our service your mooring will comply with safety and technical standards set by the NRC and a certificate will be issued.

Our inspections are objective: we measure chains, shackles and swivels against NRC minimum standards. Failed components are replaced so that certification is achieved and insurance secured. This objective approach prevents unnecessary work and costs.

We make every effort in our scheduling to inspect your mooring as close as possible to its expiry date; however, this may not always be possible, for example due to poor weather. The NRC is aware of scheduling constraints.

When

Registered swing moorings in Northland are required to be inspected and serviced every three years – this is a condition of the consent with the Northland Regional Council. Failure to do so could result in your mooring being forfeited and your vessel insurance invalidated.
Some people may require a mooring inspection and servicing regime of two years to meet the requirements of their boat insurer. If in doubt please contact your insurer.
In more exposed and harsh mooring locations owners should consider two yearly services.
We recommend that swing moorings that have a Fergibuoy attached should consider a two yearly inspection and service regime because the continual friction between the buoy’s hard plastic and the polyester rope can cause static which in turn causes electrolysis along the top chain. So if in doubt–check it out!
