The HCMCA is a non-profit organization registered with the BC Provincial government and comprised of live aboard and recreational boaters. We are here to share information and to help facilitate communication between the members and management of the Heather Civic Marina.
LIVEABOARD COVENANT:
The Heather Civic Marina was built in the 1980’s (before Expo) in response to removing a marina at the foot of Davie Street and the liveaboards that are here now were encouraged to relocate their homes. In order to do that a covenant was given by the City of Vancouver to the Heather Civic Marina liveaboard community guaranteeing the City would continue to provide and upkeep their berths in perpetuity. Most copies of this document have been lost to time but the City keeps their word to (and a copy in the Civic Archives) and the liveaboard community still thrives.
