As TS Andrea moves over north western Florida we are reminded of the fact that the 2013 Hurricane Season is officially upon us. Please review the LYC Hurricane Protocol for all sailing fleets.
In general, all families not participating in any summer clinics or club supported events are encouraged to remove all private boats and equipment from LYC's Sailing Center.
In the event of a Tropical Storm or Hurricane please follow the steps below...
At the hoisting of a ‘Hurricane Watch’ all boats in and dry storage areas and all equipment on the premises of Lauderdale Yacht Club are requested to be removed.
Sailing Director will announce the ETA for Hurricane watch & warning & advise local families to watch the news.
LYC requests that all members remove loose items from the Sailing Center
The Club will not tow any privately owned boats.
Any owner of a boat left at the facilities during a hurricane will be financially responsible for any and all damages to Club facilities, other property or persons caused by said boat, and will indemnify and hold the Club harmless for all expenses and fees of any type incurred by the Club regarding said boat or damages caused by it.
No dinghies or equipment will be stored in the Clubhouse on Club grounds or in Club buildings.
If an owner is out of town or unable to move his boat prior to a storm or hurricane, he will be responsible for someone other than the Marina Director or Sailmaster to do it for him.
Thanks for your help. I look forward to an "uneventful" summer, in this regard.
