“NYC apologises for any possible inconvenience and at such short notice as we have never been in this position before,” said Keith Vial, Niue Yacht Club’s acting Commodore.
“With three years of inactivity through COVID, the club lost six of our previous mooring blocks through storms. That combined with supply chain issues and delays means we are behind schedule reinstating our 20 mooring capacity.”
“As there are no other anchorage options around the island of Niue, we are asking cruising yachts who may be planning to visit to please come outside of these dates.”
Keith said the club’s new pre-booking system for moorings is almost in place and a website link and more information would soon be available.
“The new system will allow more certainty of a moorings being available, with essential documents sent electronically and online payment being made for “x” nights. This should also expedite arrival procedures here.
“Please bear with us while we endeavour to keep OUR heads above water.”
