Keeping a boat at DBSC

Membership does not guarantee boat parking space. Spaces are allocated on an annual basis and must be applied for as part of the annual membership renewal process.Contact the membership secretery if you wish to keep your boat at the club: membership@dalgetybaysc.org

All members agree to and must comply with the Club Handbook (DBSC Club Handbook Nov 2021.docx - Google Drive ) which contains lots of useful information about keeping a boat at the club.

Some of the important rules are:

Inactive boats - The boat park and tender/outboard stores are not intended for storage of "inactive boats". Members with "inactive boats" may lose their space(s) in order to free up space for active members.

Definition of "inactive"

A boat will considered as "inactive" if none of the criteria below have been met.

In the past twelve months:

  • the boat has been used on more than three occasions
  • the boat has been offered for sale proactively
  • significant maintenance has been conducted on the boat in order to make it fit for use or for sale

Boats are actively monitored - with dinghies by tying piece of (environmentally friendly) twine to the pintles. All that an owner needs to do is take the twine off when using the boat.

Keeping a keelboat at the club

You should review the handbook carefully, but some important points are:

Launching - keelboat owners need to have their own trailer for launching. The tractor is available for launching.

Moorings - members supply and maintain their own moorings. However members can only lay moorings with the agreement of the club. The club has a raft that is available to help the laying and maintenance of moorings.

This document has more detailed - and very important - information.

Commercial vessels are not allowed.
