News & Information
- Insurance: Prior to May 1st, 2010, it is required that all Shareholders
and/or Lessees provide Wheeler Landing Yacht Harbor with an insurance
certificate showing proof of proper liability insurance coverage on their
boat. Please make sure the certificates include
valid dates, required coverage amounts, and indemnification. You can
either fax this information in to WLYH or American Real Estate or
give it directly to the Harbormaster. But please remember that the
Harbormaster must have this in hand before you bring your
boat in. Please refer to By-Laws and General Rules for information
regarding insurance as well as other important requirements and
regulations of Wheeler Landing Yacht Harbor. Please
contact us
if you need a copy.
- Address Corrections: Please make sure that if you have changed your address and/or
phone number that you notify Wheeler Landing Yacht Harbor to make
the necessary changes. Changes can be made via phone, fax, or email
to a member of the Board of Directors.
- Dock Boxes: Dock boxes are allowed under regulations adopted by the Board.
Basically, boxes must be of a specific design to be uniform throughout
the marina. No decals, logos, boat names, or markings are allowed. The box
remains the property of the lessee or shareholder and can be removed by
it's owner. A complete list of the rules governing the installation of
dock boxes, costs involved, and the installation requirements can be
obtained from Jim Patterson, one of our board members. He is in charge of
all dock box installations and can be reached at his company
Apex Metals
6191 Sherman
Saginaw, MI 48604
(989) 771-5070
Or catch Jim in the marina at Slip #225. More details about the dock box
specifications can be found on the
Apex
web site.
- Energy Conservation: Energy costs continue to go up. To
forestall additional increases in dues (and subsequent lease rates) the
board has been looking for ways to conserve energy costs. One good way we
can accomplish this goal is to request that boat air conditioner units
not be left running when no one is on board, especially when people will
be gone for several days. Please help by cooperating and doing your
part to help conserve.
- Spring Maintenance Season: Before the season opens we will be
busy with maintenance and getting ready for the season open on May 1st.
We will have a large barge (or two) in the marina that will need to be
able to maneuver to various docks to do necessary repairs. During this
time it is imperative that boats not get in the way. If you must have
your boat in the water and docked prior to May 1st, you must contact
the Harbormaster (as you would normally need to anyway) to arrange for
a parking spot (please see the "Early-In" section on the
Season Open
page for details). We want to keep the number of boats in the marina to a
minimum during maintenance season to reduce the risk of damage from the
marina contractor equipment and to reduce repair delays/costs. Also be
aware that many services (such as water) will not be available until the
official season open date of May 1st. Please ensure that if you do have
a boat in the marina during spring maintenance, that you provide the
Harbor Master with a good way to contact you in the event your boat
needs to be moved to facilitate marina repairs.
