Navigation Notification Posted 3-29-07 #1 Deep Channel Buoys (corrections) There were a few errors in the previous navigation notifications regarding the "Deep Channel" Buoys. The attached chart and instructions corrects those errors. Error #1 was the compass heading. This was not a crucial error but has been corrected from 340 degrees to 327 degrees magnetic. Error #2 was that buoy "R12" was labeled as buoy "R10". All coordinates were correct though. Please disregard the following Navigation Notifications: Navigation Notification 3-28-07 #1 (cancelled) Navigation Notification 3-19-07 #2 (cancelled) Please substitute the attached chart for those listed in the above listed Navigation Notifications. The correct chart has also been posted on the GSL Marina bulletin board. Thank you, GSL Harbormaster

Navigation Notification Posted 3-28-07 #1 Deep Channel Buoys (Update) The "Deep Channel" buoys, as set through the winter, have now all been removed for summer maintenance. An alternative Spring/Summer route has been set. These are three red buoys heading out from the marina on a path of 340 degrees (or heading from Promontory).

GSL Storm Damage

27 Mar '07

GSL Slip Renters. There has been some damage at the marina. Not as bad as past storms. The damage is the usual damage; furlers, dock lines, dock boxes, hatches, and a few boats tipped over. DRY STORAGE Dennis Hartley, your boat is tipped over and off its trailer again. Jeff Kluge, your genoa is shredded. K DOCk "Lugsy Mauru" your main sail cover is off but your sail is tied down. K-42 Your pirate flag didn't make it. J DOCK J-21 "Arial" your halyard is wrapped in the rigging of the boat in J-19 D DOCK D-02 "The Salty Dog" your boat is rubbing against the dock D-14 "French Roast" You have lost an upper shroud and the rest of your rigging is very loose. We have tried to secure your upper shroud but it need attention from the owner. D-39 "Mirage" you have a broken dock line C DOCK C-03 "Ptarmigan" your bow is rubbing against the dock. B DOCK B-09 "Crosswind" your genoa is shredded. We secured it the best we could but it is not completely secured. Most of the rest of the boats were found to be in good shape. There is a dock box floating in the marina. Don't know who's. There is a wooden forward hatch floating in the marina. Couldn't identify the boat it came from. There is a lot of floating debris such as steps, covers and fenders. We have secured dock lines and boats where possible but the strong, steady wind has made it tough to handle all the issues safely. The front has not hit the marina yet so we may possibly see more damage. GSL Harbormaster

GSL Slip Renters 1:10pm March 27, 2007 We now have some limited damage at the marina. "Suli" (in dry storage) your sail has come unfurled. You are at risk of loosing mast or boat tipping over. "Harbor-Nate" (K dock) your furler has come undone. We are not able to safely secure it at this time. Andy Strebel, your boat has tipped over in Unsecured storage. Damage is very minimal at this time. "No Exit" on I dock, your furler is coming undone. Just like the above boat, we cannot safely secure it yet. We will continue dock walking just after the front passes but at this time this is the only apparent damage

GSL Slip Renters We had multiple gusts of 40 to 50knots last night with one or two reaching 60 to 70 knots. No obvious damage at the marina but we have not thoroughly walked the docks yet. We will do this after the front passes (around noon today). But all seems well right now. GSL Harbormaster

Water to Docks, Pump-A-Head
by gslharbormaster 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

GSL Slip Renters Unfortunately, we have had to turn the water off to the docks and pump-a-head / porta-potty rinse station. Due to the cold air associated with the approaching storm, we have shut down and blown the system to prevent damage. We will try to have the system up and running again on Friday. We will keep you posted. Sorry for the inconvenience. GSL Harbormaster

Navigation Notification Posted 3-19-07 #2 Deep Channel Buoys. The deep channel will be re-aligned on March 23rd, 2007. The water over the reef on the newly designated path is currently 7' (lake level 4197.4'). We will pull the buoys for the current deep channel buoys. They will be pulled for summer maintenance. These buoys are quite expensive to maintain as the reef takes a toll on the anchors and chain. We will leave R2 and R4 (the red buoys with lights) in their current position until sometime in early April. An "Alternative" R4 and R6 will be aligned on a heading of 330 degrees from the marina mouth. This path takes you to R2D2 (on a path towards Freemont Island) A map, directions, and coordinates are attached. The Usual Deep Channel configuration will be re-set later this summer when water level drop warrants this. Thank you GSL Harbormaster
