Welcome back to the docks everyone, and a special welcome to our new members! A reminder about keeping safe on the docks: - children should be encouraged to not run on the docks, and consider having them wear a life jacket - no chairs should be put on the docks as it narrows the paths and increases the danger of falling - bicycles can be walked on the docks, but shouldn't be ridden - report any issues or broken dock pieces to the office if you see them so they can be fixed promptly For the consideration of others: - tie your halyards away from the mast: to a shroud or something on the deck as this prevents the loud slapping noise against the mast when there is wind - it's always a good idea when leaving your boat to try to imagine what conditions would be like in a 30 kt wind - from any direction! - ensure the gate is closed behind you, except to hold it open if another member is right behind you ;) Here's to a wonderful and safe boating season!
