Schedule
The haul-out list will be provided shortly. Boat owners are required to be present two hours before their scheduled haulout. Every boat owner should help out with at least one or two boats other than their own.
We start hauling out boats at 7:30 am Saturday October 18th. Boat owners and volunteers can arrive at 6:45 – 7:00 to be assigned tasks for the haul out, and to hear safety instructions. Coffee, muffins and doughnuts will be served. Helmets are provided, and we recommend you bring gloves and sturdy shoes.
Requirements for boat owners
You must comply with the Harbour Regulations. Failure to do so will result in fines per the PCYC bylaws.
Do not winterize your boat in the harbour. You must get to the dock under your own power. Rudder and tiller must remain in place, in case the boat needs to be towed.
Markers must be in place for the haul-out straps.
Leave 25+ foot long bow and stern lines on deck. (Please make sure there are no knots or thimbles on these lines as they can get caught while moving the boat)
Ensure your cradle pads are installed on your cradles/trailers.
Boats with that are “masts up” that require the backstay to be removed for craning, must have a temporary backstay that does not interfere with the crane.
After haul out, permanent dock lines, chains, shackles etc must be properly removed from your assigned dock space to avoid damage or loss during the winter months.
