Marina Users. Thank you all, for a very successfull Turkey Cup event. This event is always my favorite just because of the great food. And you all outdid yourselves this year. Over the past several years we have usually cooked four turkeys. With the exception of last year we have always had enough leftovers for sandwiches on Sunday. This year we cooked five turkeys and there wasn't even enough left over for our cat Newport. Current Water Watch report has been updated on the gslmarina web site. Updated information and newly added graphs. Marina News has been updated on the gslmarina web site. Pirates of the Great Salt Lake dvd release date and information is listed in the News section of the gslmarina web site. Bottom-of-the-Pit Party information is listed on the gslmarina web site.

After several hours of phone conversations, equipment and program updates we are now back up and running. You should see updated forecasts and reports on the gslmarina website sometime today. I should be able to get back to most of your emails today also. Sorry for the inconvenience and delay. Thank god the weather was mild and we didn't need any weather warnings.

Weather Forecasts
by Dave Shearer 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users As you may know now, we have been posting the daily forecasts and weather warning flags on www.gslmarina.com These forecasts usually are posted by 10am each morning. But there is a problem due to the remoteness of the marina. We can only rely on satellite connections for internet access. When we get heavy cloud cover out here it shuts down our internet. This can lead to long delays in getting out a timely forecast or weather warnings. Please understand our limitations and realize that this could created delays in getting timely warnings from our web site.

Debris on Docks
by GSL Harbormaster 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users Just one last reminder about hoses and other items on the docks and in secured & unsecured storage. This weekend is the deadline for removing all hoses, chairs, batteries, coolers, dinghies and other items from the docks and storage areas. We want to finish winterizing the docks and prepare a safe environment for our crew that shovels them along with a trip free area for our slip renters during these winter months. The only thing that should remain on the docks are power cords (and these should be neatly coiled and secured to prevent tripping hazards. And they must not make contact with the lake water). Any other items must be secured in your dock boxes, in your boat, or removed for the season as per your Boat Slip Lease. Our maintenance team will be walking the docks early next week and will be removing any left over items and hoses. These items will be considered abandoned and disposed of properly. Thank you for helping us make the marina a safe environment for our slip renters and guests during these winter months.
