by Dave Shearer 29 Apr '07

29 Apr '07

Hey all; Just want to invite you to Opening Day at the Great Salt Lake Marina this next Saturday, May 5th. This year's theme is "Cinco De Mayo". Decorate your boats for the boat parade. Prizes for best decorations. Leroy will be blessing the fleet this year as Ranger Bob Rosell leads the boat parade. The boat parade starts at 10:30 Susan & Simon Holmes are kind enough to host a a Tri-Tip steak lunch at the Yacht Club patio afterwards. Bring your favorite side dish and margarita fixings. The forecast is looking pretty good right now. Hope to see you all there.

GSL Storm Damage

Dear Slip Renters It appears the storm damage is very light. Winds have subsided to a consistent 12 to 18mph. We could see higher winds with associated squalls though. Right now, it appears the only damage is to B-38 "Phoenix". Your main sail has come out of its cover and is laying on the deck. Thank you, GSL Harbormaster

Trailer Storage
by Dave Shearer 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

To Slip Renters. Both dry storage and secured dry storage are full. We have several people willing to pay to leave their trailers here but can't because we have no room. One of the reasons we have no room is because we have 6 unidentified trailers and two cradles. We also have just a few people who have not paid rent for more than a year but still have their property stored here. We, therefore, will begin removing unidentified trailers from the marina. We will also begin seizing and removing the few others who have no contract and have not paid rent. WE DO NOT INTEND TO TAKE ANY PROPERTY where we have valid contracts and payments. Most trailers and boats in unsecured and secured dry storage fit into this category and you have nothing to worry about. Remember, Just because a slip renter has a boat in a slip, it does not entitle the slip renter to free trailer storage. We need a contract and payments for both. If you have a doubt as to whether we know what trailer is yours or if there is a payment problem, please call us at 801-250-1898 For those waiting to store your trailer or boat in one of the above listed storage areas, we hope to have room for you in the next two weeks. Thank you, and please call or email if you have any questions. GSL Harbormaster

Make sure they code it under sw for small watercraft also otherwise it won't work. I just went through it, long hassel as two workers had it wromg. -----Original Message----- From: "Dave Shearer" <dshearer(a)gslyc.org> To: "Forum for sailing related topics in Utah." <utah-sailing(a)mailman.xmission.com> Cc: "gsl-marina(a)mailman.xmission.com" <gsl-marina(a)mailman.xmission.com> Sent: 4/6/2007 11:09 AM Subject: [GSL-Marina] Boat Tax Hey All; I couldn't find the sailboat fee schedule on the link that Bryant provided so I will include it here: If the sailboat is less than 15' the fee$10.00 If the sailboat is 15' or more but less than 19' $15.00 If the sailboat is 19' or more but less than 23' $25.00 If the sailboat is 23' or more but less than 27' $40.00 If the sailboat is 27' or more but less than 31' $75.00 If the sailboat is 31' or more then you are on the old system There is no "Age Based" fee for the above listings. There will also be a "Registration Fee" of $11.75 on top of the above listed fee. If you have a sailboat that meets the above requirements but the fee is more than listed above, then something is wrong. The above fee schedule was taken directly of the legislation bill that has become law. Hope this helps Dave

Hey all; One last bit of information regarding your registrations: VALID FOR SALT LAKE COUNTY ONLY If you feel there is a problem with your past registration or your current registration, call Kevin Jacobs at 468-3409 He is the point man for Salt Lake County in fixing the past registration refunds and helping to fix current problems regarding registrations reflecting "motorboats" rather than "sailboats" Hope this helps Dave
