Tory Channel Property Owners v Fast Ferry operators

GCA acted for a large number of property owners in Queen Charlotte Sound who were adversely affected by the wave action caused upon the introduction of new ‘fast ferries’ between Picton and Wellington. Although a class action based on ‘nuisance’ was formed and the GCA lobbied government and achieved immediate Ministerial intervention. This led to the Marlborough District Council introducing appropriate restrictions which slowed the boats (and subsequently, one Ferry operator went out of business).
