Moorings and dryland storage for personally owned sail boats will again be available this year.  You must provide a signed storage agreement prior to bringing any equipment to the facility.  All owner supplied mooring systems accessed via the club launch must meet the specifications established by the club.  Owners may lease a mooring from the club for $90 per season, with spring and fall maintenance included.  Requests for lease moorings should be received no later than May 10th.  All boats must display NH registration prior to launching.  Personally owned boats must be removed from the facility no later than noon on September 2, 2013.

It is important to maintain the value of your membership to the facility, so it is requested that local families that accompany you on a repetitive basis be encouraged to become members themselves.
