Thanks for the comments. Just one small clarification, it's ocean, not a river. The bay is part of Lyttelton Harbour which was naturally formed from an extinct volcano. Our city's port is on the opposite side of the harbour from where I was standing (I'd actually ridden via there).
Oh yes and the boats were just parked up :) The wind was pretty strong that day which probably accounts for their alignment.
