The Mana Cruising Club operates a concrete boat ramp at Mana, near Porirua, suitable for use in all tides and wind conditions, with some parking available.

The club is located alongside Mana Marina on Mana Esplanade and is accessible by contacting the Cruising Club office.

The ramp is available to members, and the club publishes etiquette guidelines to keep launching and retrieval efficient: the skipper moves the boat to the pontoon and along to free up space, while the car driver parks in authorised areas and returns to the boat.

A strict no-wake zone of 3 knots applies within the marina. In addition to the boat ramp, the club operates a travel lift and hardstanding area with cradles, with service providers available by arrangement.
