On a full waterfront erven with jetty rights POMA will typically allow a floating jetty placed centrally and lengthwise to the property. POMA uses as a guideline a 6m x 3m jetty for a property with a waterfront of 20m. These properties may however apply for longer jetties provided there is a sufficiently strong motivation and such a jetty does not restrict the water rights of any neighbouring properties in any way. POMA will allow a jetty owner the right to moor only two vessels at this jetty generally in accordance with diagram A (erf 1 and 4).

On panhandle erven POMA expects the two adjacent panhandle owners to agree to share a jetty even if only one owner will initially pay for this jetty. POMA will therefore insist that such a jetty be placed 50/50 overlapping each of the panhandle properties. This does not give the non paying panhandle owner the right of use of this jetty, but does allow him to buy into the "shared" jetty at a later stage. Only when the second owner 'buys into' this jetty does he then get the right to moor a vessel on his side of the jetty. POMA will typically allow a maximum of a 6m x 3m floating jetty placed end-wise to the panhandle properties. Panhandle owners however cannot be given the option to increase the length of such a jetty as this could adversely interfere with the jetty approaches of their neighbours.

POMA only allows panhandle owners the right to moor one vessel each at such a jetty. In the event that the "shared" jetty is still wholly owned by the one panhandle owner, then this owner may moor one vessel on each side of the jetty as per diagram A (erf 2 and 3) provided he has the permission of his neighbour to use the remainder of the other panhandle's water frontage.

In cases where front and back erven have been legally consolidated thereby leaving only a single panhandle, this remaining panhandle still retains its jetty right. In such an instance however the full jetty must now be placed directly in front of the remaining panhandle with the jetty owner's vessel being moored on the side of the consolidated property. No vessel may be moored on the non-consolidated side as per diagram B (erf 1, 2 and 4).

POMA considers the continuation of the land erf boundary lines to run out into the waterway at right angles to the marina embankment walls from the point where the erf boundary lines meets the waterway as shown in diagram A.

In cases that vessels moored in front of a panhandle erf ( erf 2 & 3 ) transgress the boundary line extension of one of the adjoining full frontal erven, POMA will allow such a limited transgression provided that the panhandle owners first check with POMA and get POMA's approval for such an overlap.
