CLUB FACILITIES - DINGHY PARK |
The dinghy park area to the West of the harbour is available for the use of members during the sailing season.
Ordinary members are entitled to store one dinghy in the Park, Family members are entitled to two places. Launch trolley tags are available from the Membership Secretary (membership@chanonry.org.uk) each boat should have one attached to its launch trolley or the boat itself if it has no trolley. The tag should be clearly marked with the owner’s name and phone number in indelible ink.
Members who resign or do not renew their membership are no longer entitled to keep a boat at the Club and are requested to remove it as soon as possible. Boats abandoned at the Club may be disposed of by the Club.
There is no formal allocation of spaces. Please place your dinghy in a suitable space with consideration for other owners. Large and heavy dinghies should be allowed easy access to the tarmac roadway, small and light dinghies should be parked on the grass area. Space is limited - please use it as effectively as possible.
Members who cannot take their boats home may store them in the dinghy park over the winter although this is not recommended due to the strong likelihood of severe weather. If the boat is not being used over winter the mast must be taken down and secured.
The Club recommends that you tie down your boat and trailer at all times and tie back halyards to prevent noise nuisance to our neighbours. Wire ropes for the attachment of tying down lines are provided and dinghies should be parked in lines along these ropes. Members are reminded that these constitute a trip hazard - please take care.
Tenders - can be stored along the seaward edge of the dinghy park and securely tied down to the gabion cages.
If in exceptional circumstances you have to move any boat, please return it to its original position and orientation and tie it down securely. Members are reminded that third party insurance is a condition of membership and thus is also a condition of use of the Dinghy Park.
Dogs - Members and their guests are requested to clear up after their dogs. Because the dinghy park and harbour area is effectively open to the public not doing so is breaching The Dog Fouling (Scotland) Act 2003. Bagged “poo” can be disposed of in the green wheelie bin at the harbourside.
