Boat storage : Barramundi & Estuary Fishing Trip Reports

ozlad · Posted: Thu Jul 26, 2012 10:14 am Post subject: Boat storage

Unfortunately the apartment block I'm living at wont allow me to park a boat in the visitors car park. I have looked up storage locations in Darwin, but was wonder if there were any specific boat storage yards. Maybe the sailing club? Would prefer under cover storage If possible. Does anyone have anyone have any suggestion on places etc?

Cheers,
Ozlad

Not sure about undercover, but I know the ski club offers secure storage at a pretty cheap rate. Right next to the ramp to.

Thanks. Might just invest in a decent cover for boat and motor. It is a decent start anyhow.

Yeah the ski club. They may have a shed or 2 availiable but otherwise it can be stored in thier secure compound.

Col runs Airport storage, which has undercover parking suitable for both boats and cars and is in Jingili. Cost was around $260 per month last time I enquired, so I parked mine in a mate's yard in exchange for the first tuna I caught. He may have cheaper options tho.

a mates yard will be your best option to store your rig.
probly eaiser when you come home as well for washing down etc.

Thanks for the replies.

New to Darwin, so low on mates... Hahaha! Hopefully when I get my rig that will change...

Hi Ozlad,

I just moved to Darwin too and I went though the same issues (I am at uni and live on campus.... so nowhere to keep my boat... and new to town so no mates).

I have my boat stored at Col's (Airport Storage, Freshwater Rd, Jingli) at the moment, but it is around $250 per month for undercover storage. They are really nice people and Cords is apparently a Barra legend. Cols number is 0418 894 059. There is somewhere you can wash your boat down too.

If you're not fussed about under cover parking, Saddlepark do it for much cheaper, but it is outside. I think the blokes name is Allan ph. 8927 0594

If your boat isn't too big, you could probably get a whole shed at space base, or U-store-it for around $300 per month, then you can stack it full of unwanted cr.p...

Hope this helps, Fables.

I can't speak for these chaps, but perhaps those that responded to my 'cries for help' in March may still have space.
