Storm Damage
by Dave Shearer 22 Apr '18

22 Apr '18

The storm damage is quite light. J Dock - "Breaking Wind" The top sliding hatch blew off. It was retrieved and is in our shop. K Dock - Wilkinson's Newport 30. Broken dock line and your life sling is floating in the marina. The line to the life sling is still tied to the boat though. GSLR - more floats and some more boards from your old dock mysteriously showed up and are by L dock. Most of the damage was to the kayak rack that used to be down by the launch ramp. It blew over 100 feet before landing in the parking lot. Kayaks are strewn from the marina to past the east side of Saltair. That is about it. Top registered gust was 80mph but I'm sure some of the Tooele Twisters topped around 100mph. Dave

Hi. How much is a 25’ slip with power? $150? If so, can I move my boat to a slip with power? Sent from my iPhone

MARINA OPEN AGAIN
by Dave Shearer 16 Apr '18

16 Apr '18

The front has come through and the marina is back open. We registered our highest 'official' gust of the year at 80mph, but there were probably higher gusts in the twisters. Damage to the boats doesn't look bad but we are just now walking the docks and will have a storm damage report soon. Dave

Frontage Road Striping
by Dave Shearer 10 Apr '18

10 Apr '18

I know many of you have had close calls on the frontage road to the marina since the county slurry sealed it last fall. Well the striping is back. The county striped the road today. Hopefully that will make things a bit safer. Dave

Wind Forecast
by Dave Shearer 10 Apr '18

10 Apr '18

As I reported to all of you, the last wind storm a few weeks ago did some damage in the marina. Much of the damage was caused by loose objects. As an example someone's dock stairs to their boat blew loose and hit the window of the shop causing it to break and shattering the stairs. I mention this because we have two more strong wind events barreling down on us. The first one will hit Thursday and the next one looks to hit the first of next week. We are going to start taking a harder stance on objects on the docks. Any loose objects on the docks will be removed now. We also had a boat dismasted in that storm. Please take a moment to make sure your boats and property are secured. If your dock lines are old please replace them. Spring is windy season at the Great Salt Lake Marina. It is also Tooele Twister season. Be prepared. Thanks Dave
