We need your help!

In preparation for the start of the Spring clean up, and the delivery of the Clubs mooring supplies, we will be moving the two skiffs and the launch from the driveway to the street in front of the Club House on Thursday, March 25th, starting at 0900.

We will need members to help remove and stow winter covers, pump up tires and assist with the actual moving of the boats and parking on the street.

If you can help please contact Bill by Wednesday @ 1800.

We have one truck committed, but if you have a truck that you are willing to use let Bill Turner know by clicking here.

Harbor Master needs our help!

September 2, 2020  |   | Latest News

To continue a good relationship with the New London Harbor Master, we need to make sure all mooring requirements are fulfilled.  To do this, we must keep inspections and mooring applications current.

Although this has been a very different year for all of us, it’s important we fulfill our obligations regarding completion of mooring inspections and applications. This is not a club requirement, but the New London Harbor Master. Without an application, another mooring could be installed near your existing mooring, and nothing could be done except the expensive removal and relocation of your mooring.

It’s worth noting it is not our mooring field, but rather the residents along Pequot Avenue.  In other words, while you own your mooring tackle, you don’t own the spot. Residents have the right to moorings there, and without a completed application and current inspection, the New London Harbor Master could put a mooring very, very close to yours.

Please make sure your application have been filed and the inspection of your mooring have been completed. A recent email went out with more specifics, so please take a look at our convenience.

Thank you.
