CRANE DAY
by Dave Shearer 20 Mar '13

20 Mar '13

GSL Slip Renters (at least those interested in Crane Day) Three of the boats wanting to use the Crane on April 5th have pulled out. Their boats are not ready (or in town yet) and they have asked me to schedule a crane day for the 12th of April. I need to know who wants to keep the April 5th crane day and who would like the April 12th crane day. I need to start making plans on which size crane to hire for April 5th or whether to cancel the 5th and keep everyone on the 12th due to costs. Please let me know.

Help setting buoys
by Dave Shearer 20 Mar '13

20 Mar '13

GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users. It is time to set the yacht club buoys for the year. We have a limited amount of room onboard RESCUE ONE for some volunteers who may want to help set buoys and see parts of the lake you may not have seen. I would like to set the buoys around noon either Saturday or Sunday (whichever day has the better weather. Right now it looks like Saturday is the best day) If you would like to volunteer please email me. We can take the first six volunteers. It will take about two hours. Thanks Dave Dave Shearer Harbor Master Great Salt Lake State Marina Antelope Island State Marina 801-209-9142

GSL Legend Article
by Dave Shearer 10 Mar '13

10 Mar '13

GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users, The following link has a story about Great Salt Lake folklore. Although the story isn't true, the legend has refused to die. The article has a couple factual errors such as they weren't Australian whales but rather pilot whales that were reported as being transplanted in the lake back in the 1800's. Anyway it is a cute article about one of the great Great Salt Lake legends. http://www.ksl.com/?sid=24334060&nid=1010&title=4-places-of-legend-in-utah&f m=home_page&s_cid=featured-1 Dave Shearer Harbor Master Great Salt Lake State Marina Antelope Island State Marina 801-209-9142
