The on-line NSC Fee Schedule has been updated for 2017.
It’s time for the annual reminder to please be respectful of the time you take at the service docks. This spring it’s extra important to keep your visits brief as there are still many boats to launch as we are several weeks behind.
Check the new EC water office page for a quasi-real time reading at Brittania.
For masts stored on the NSC racks, spreaders must be completely removed and not taped or hanging from the shrouds. Masts must also be labelled with this form; please print and put in a plastic bag affixed to your mast.
With night-time temperatures dropping, its time to winterize the vacuum pump-out system. The system will be shut down for the season on Monday, November 13 which means that the upcoming weekend of November 11 & 12 the last days in 2023 to pump-out your holding tanks.
All wet-moored boat owners are requested to check bilges under the engine and in the keel sump for contaminant leakage. If there is any sign of contamination, owners must turn their bilge pump OFF until the source of the leak is repaired and the bilge cleaned of contaminants.
There is a new sound being heard around the NSC docks, as sailboats come and go from the harbour; it is the sound of nothing at all. Instead of all the noise and a face full of diesel or two-stroke smoke, more and more boats are motoring almost silently, on electric power.
