A neighbourhood dispute has erupted in an affluent Sydney suburb over a resident’s boat and trailer occupying car parking spots close to a busy beach.
The row broke out after a family boat was left parked on a side street in the Northern Beaches suburb of Freshwater, in what was an untimed zone with no hourly restrictions on vehicle bays.
Images surfaced online showed the boat, with vandalism on its tarp covering, spray painted on with the phrase “f**k it off”.The Reddit user who posted the photos noted residents were bothered by the boat particularly because it was parked in a “very high density area” with several apartment blocks and limited availability of street parking.
“I have tried to be thoughtful by not parking directly in front of anyone’s house or next to their driveway.“The boat will move when we take it out. Hope you can understand and not graffiti or damage our family boat.” “You are taking peoples night time parking,” the note - shared by news.com.au - reads. “This is not a quiet area!”
