The Boating Facilities

The Boating Facilities, including the Dock, Basin and Floats, the Locker Room, Ways and Yard, and the Club Tender and Rowboats, are under the jurisdiction of the Fleet Captain.

During the Boating Season, a Boatman will be on duty in the Club. His duties will be to assist members using the facilities, to provide tender service, keep boats bailed and free from water and cared for generally.


THE DOCK AND SLIP

The Floats are used as landing stages and dockage for Club-owned boats, and will not be occupied by other craft any longer than necessary. Yachts are permitted to tie up to the outside of the dock for limited periods. Boats to tie up inside the slip for other than a limited time must receive permission from the Fleet Captain. This space will generally be reserved for dinghies and tenders.

MOORINGS

It is desired that Boat Owners own their own anchors and chain, which must be of sufficient size and of proper design to insure safety for other craft moored nearby. The Fleet Captain will inspect the moorings and will designate the places where they will be situated

LOCKERS

Rented on an annual basis, $3.00 to $10.00 according to size.

WAYS

Boats stored all winter at rate of $0.50 per foot for the first fifteen feet, and $1.00 per foot each foot thereafter. Use of the ways during the boating season for periods less than 24 hours is free for boats owned by members. If any boat remains on the car for over 24 hours, the charge will be an additional dollar per day or any part thereof. Boats will not be hauled on car except by arrangement with the Fleet Captain, and will move from car upon request. There is no storage fee for dinghies.

GASOLINE

Marine White Gasoline is available at the dock. Price will be contingent upon future costs. In the absence of the Boatman, Gasoline Customers will consult the Steward


LABOR

The work of hauling on the ways will be performed by the owners themselves cooperatively, or by any person the owner may choose to hire for the purpose. In order to insure proper insurance coverage for such employees, Boat Owners are requested to arrange such transactions through the Fleet Captain, in which case the Club will pay for the work and bill the boat owner therefor. In the case of other items, such as raising moorings at the end of the season, work will be hired out by the Club and the charges pro-rated among the owners involved.


GENERAL

The anchorage and other boating facilities are for the use of the Club Members. Non-members will be guests, and will be accompanied at all times by sponsoring member. Guest privileges and the courtesy of the use of the Boating Facilities are extended to Cruising Members of recognized Yacht Clubs; House Guests of Members; and Boat Owners whose applications for membership in the Club have been approved by the Membership Committee. Persons in the last two categories will be in possession of a Card issued by the Commodore granting such privileges.
