What is the layout of the proposed marina?
The design of the marina has been developed to: i. Have the vessels generally in the visual north/south shadow line of the original jetty. ii. Provide open spaces between lines of moored vessels such that when people walk along the foreshore, their views to the east have minimal impact. iii. Accommodate the wave environment at the site, particularly as a result of vessels’ waves, generated by vessels moving along the main Parramatta River channel. iv. Stand well clear of the notional navigation channel required for Sydney Ferries access to the public ferry wharf at Cabarita.

The layout has been based on the vessel characteristics specified in Australian Standard AS 3962:2001 Guidelines for the Design of Marinas and NSW Maritime Authority Guidance Note 8.3.02. Minimum water depth required in berths and in the fairways has been based on the requirements of the NSW Maritime Authority as set out in Guida
