Pics & Sailfest
by Dave Shearer 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users; Well it took me awhile but I finally got the pictures from last Wednesday nights race on the website. Go to www.gslmarina.com and look down the left hand side of the home page. Click on "New And Improved Photo Album. There are some great pictures. This weekend is going to be a busy one. We have SAILFEST, the 8 mile swim competition and the one mile swim competition. With the construction going on in the south half of the parking lot, parking is going to be very tight. Please make sure you are occupying a parking stall and not blocking traffic. If you are bringing a camper or camping trailer out we want you to park them in the gravel section of the north parking lot. On Saturday, we have two different swim competitions. The first one is an eight mile swim from the south tip of Antelope Island to Black Rock. Each swimmer will have a support kayaker following him. Please watch out for the swimmers while you are out sailing. The other swim is a one mile swim from the marina entrance to Black Rock. These swimmers will be getting in the water at the launch ramp around 11:45am and will swim out to the marina mouth. They will start their swim at the green buoy just outside the mouth. The start time is at noon. Please be careful leaving or entering the marina at this time. After their noon start the swimmers should be completely out of the way of where you may be boating. So we only have a 15 minute window where we may have boats and swimmers in the same area. The weather forecast for SAILFEST is looking awesome. 80 degrees for a high with mostly sunny skies. High 40's for lows. Look for several news articles in the next short while about the Great Salt Lake once again being great now that the lake has come up so much. With all this water there is a LOT of current on the lake. The current that is causing the most trouble right now is the Goggins. It is rushing past the marina through the Reef Channel buoys. Watch your drift going in and out of the marina. Harbormaster

Antelope Island Marina
by Dave Shearer 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

GSL Slip Renters, Now that Antelope Island has a viable marina again many of you want to use that as a destination. The Rangers up there are very excited to have you up there. I thought I would go over some need-to-know information about using that marina. . Be very careful approaching the marina. There is a tufa reef complex that stretches nearly four miles out to the northwest of Buffalo Point. Steer well clear of that point. When you finally make your eastward turn after rounding the northwest corner, make sure you stay about a mile north of Egg Island. Wait until you are due north of the marina before turning south into the marina. . We do have reciprocity with the Antelope Island Marina. But this reciprocity only includes the slip rent. If you take your boat up you can use their slip for free (up to one week). If you take a car up there to leave and use, you will have to pay the daily entrance fee. This includes the park entrance and Davis Causeway fee. We do not have a reciprocity agreement for that. . Most of the marina is still shallow. Only the outer slips on each dock are useable. . Bridger Bay is still a very shallow anchorage. . White Rock Bay (to the south west of the rock) is deep enough to be a decent anchorage. I am working on a web page that will give GPS coordinates and other instructions on the best approach to the Antelope Island Marina. I hope to have that page done and on www.gslmarina.com sometime tomorrow. Other anchorages will follow. Harbormaster

WEATHER WARNING and sinking boats
by Dave Shearer 02 Jun '11

02 Jun '11

GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users. At this time NOAA is forecasting VERY STRONG WINDS for this coming Monday. Looking at the current forecast we could see winds in excess of 100mph. If you are out here this weekend I strongly recommend you inspect and secure your boats. Check and replace dock lines if necessary. If this forecast holds we will be issuing a Hurricane Force Warning for all of Great Salt Lake by Sunday night. Fortunately, the forecasted winds are four days out. The forecast could change substantially before Monday. Now about the sinking boats: C-2 Ranger 23 "Windsome" (Michael Downie) you have a significant amount of water in your boat. E-19 Motorboat (Claire Kensmore) you have a significant amount of water in your boat. It is at risk of sinking now I-42 "Comes a Time (Schoney) you have a significant amount of water in your boat. J-18 "Crimson Rose" (Cheney) you have a significant amount of water in your boat. L-10 "Star Gazer" (Newman) you have a significant amount of water in your boat. Harbormaster
