MARINA OPEN AGAIN
by Dave Shearer 16 Apr '18

16 Apr '18

The front has come through and the marina is back open. We registered our highest 'official' gust of the year at 80mph, but there were probably higher gusts in the twisters. Damage to the boats doesn't look bad but we are just now walking the docks and will have a storm damage report soon. Dave

Frontage Road Striping

I know many of you have had close calls on the frontage road to the marina since the county slurry sealed it last fall. Well the striping is back. The county striped the road today. Hopefully that will make things a bit safer. Dave

Wind Forecast
by Dave Shearer 10 Apr '18

10 Apr '18

As I reported to all of you, the last wind storm a few weeks ago did some damage in the marina. Much of the damage was caused by loose objects. As an example someone's dock stairs to their boat blew loose and hit the window of the shop causing it to break and shattering the stairs. I mention this because we have two more strong wind events barreling down on us. The first one will hit Thursday and the next one looks to hit the first of next week. We are going to start taking a harder stance on objects on the docks. Any loose objects on the docks will be removed now. We also had a boat dismasted in that storm. Please take a moment to make sure your boats and property are secured. If your dock lines are old please replace them. Spring is windy season at the Great Salt Lake Marina. It is also Tooele Twister season. Be prepared. Thanks Dave

This is an early announcement about the annual Harbormaster's Eardley Spit Cruise and Beach Barbecue. This year's cruise and barbecue to Eardley Spit will be Saturday, June 9th. This is a great cruise out to the best beaches on Great Salt Lake. Skippers Meeting will be 10am with the cruise to follow. Sail out to Eardley Spit. Barbecue on the beach. We will provide the main course but side dishes are always welcome. Beach games will be available. For those that want to stay overnight the spit makes a great protected anchorage. So save the date! Let's make this the biggest Eardley Spit cruise ever! Dave

The water is back on to all the docks now. We will have to shut down D and J dock for a short period of time next week to fix some minor leaks. The lake is still coming up slowly. The snowpack isn't great but the Bear River snowpack, where we get 60% of our spring runoff, is still at 82%. That isn't great but we should still see a bit of a rise in the lake. We have a LOT of new boat owners. Please make them feel at home. Welcome them to the community and help them learn to navigate our great inland sea. There are a lot of you getting out on the water and sailing this spring. It is great to see. Please remember when sailing after sunset that you MUST have your navigation lights on. There was quite a bit of failure to use navigation lights last year so the rangers ARE planning on some evening patrols. Dave
