K-Dock Power
by Dave Shearer 31 Jan '07

31 Jan '07

Dear 'K' dock slip renters We have recently discovered an issue with the 'K' dock power that is related to the past storm damage to 'K' dock. This has created a safety issure for ALL of 'K' dock and therefore we have disconnected the power to the dock. We are working rapidly to resolve this issue. I do not have an honest time frame for you on getting the power back up but my wish is within a few days. We are sorry for this inconvenience and hope to resolve it rapidly. For those on 'K' dock, you may wish to check your boats regularly. If you must have power we will try to accomodate you on another dock. We do not have enough slips to accomodate all though. No other docks are affected. In researching our power problem, though, we have discoverd almost a dozen boats with unsafe cords to their boats. These are cords rated too small, cords draped in the water, cords with exposed wires. In the future, vessels with improper or unsafe cords or cords draped in the water will be disconnected and removed. It is a safety issue and can create metal-integrity problems for surrounding vessels. This affects all power docks. Thank you, GSL Harbormaster

Dock Keys

29 Jan '07

Many have emailed about the dock keys. We have been busy making keys and typing addresses on envelopes. This has taken a little longer than we had hoped. We are almost done. Keys should be in the mail Tuesday. If you need a key sooner, I have some in the office at the marina. Sorry for the inconvenience. GSL Harbormaster

Thanks to all the volunteers who assisted in refloating "Soul Rebel" this afternoon. It was successful. To those on 'K' dock. We have an electricity issue on the dock that has effected all the boats in the middle of the dock. We have had to turn off the electricity to the middle section of 'K' dock for safety reasons. We are trying to have this rectified and electricity back on ASAP. In the meantime you may want to check your boats. Owners with vessels at the beginning third and end third of 'K' dock are on effected. Thank you GSL Harbormaster

To Marina Slip Renters Check the drains in your boats closely. We had a boat sink last night in its slip. "Soul Rebel" a Catalina 22 in D dock sunk most likely from a cracked scupper from freezing. The water tempertature has sunk to 26 degrees. The marina has been freezing. Thank you GSL Harbormaster

Snow at Marina
by Dave Shearer 05 Jan '07

05 Jan '07

To GSL Marina boat owners; We received about 7" of wet snow at the marina so you may want th check your boats. There was no significant wind with this storm though. We should have all the docks and fingers shoveled off by Saturday afternoon. We are working on this now but it takes time. Sorry for the post to the general list regarding rc racing. That was unintentional. Dave
