Please avoid parking in the yard. We are several weeks behind due to water levels and there is still much left to do to unpack the yard. Having vehicles parked in the yard is making it hugely difficult on our service providers and members wanting to launch and move their boats around the yard.
If you require items for your boat, drop them off and park your vehicle in the parking lots. If you must leave your vehicle in the yard for a short time, be sure to leave the keys so it can be moved.
