I thought the number was actually 15% rather than 10%. Some marinas get
around this limitation by classifying tenants as "extended stay" or
"transient." We used to live at a marina that was probably 50% or more
liveaboards.
The city of Brisbane which operates Sierra Point Marina is in the process of
ousting all liveaboards. The interim harbormaster is also the chief of
police and is "cleaning house." Some of the tenants have banded together and
are fighting it. Some of the tenants have been there for 12 years. We wish
them well and hope that things turn out OK.
