Hi All,
I will be out of the country from October 9th to the 19th. So I need to take down my mast sometime next week, 2nd to 7th.
Is anyone else planning to do theirs in that time? 22′ MiYotie usually goes very quickly.
Thanks,
Trevor

is on Saturday May 6.
This post is just to make sure that members who use the search feature find the correct date 😉
Also, I modified the calendar entry. It was set as “Annually on May 6th.” I made it a “does not repeat” since it moves around.
Launch will be starting at 8 AM starting with the small crane starting at Tom Chambers boat (the big trimaran Chambros Two by the south gate) and working clockwise around the west basin. Trailered boats will be launched after lunch from the North basin and can be brought in after the large crane moves.
Large crane will start in front of the club house at 8AM and work around to the gas docks. Alan Marshes boat will be launched from in front of the club house. Please no parking out front of the clubhouse area up to the mast rack until these boats are launched. Large crane will start after lunch at the old gas dock.
We are continuing with the launch crews again. The crane operators found it worked much better and was safer having the same crews working together. Remember to be there approximately 1/2 ahead of time and make sure your boat is ready go, 30ft line on bow and stern and fenders set.
More to follow later in the week.

Dear GYC Members,
Attached is a copy of the schedule and mapping for haul out.
Please note we STILL NEED HELPERS to fill in on some of the crews.
Arrive at least 30-45 minutes ahead of your haul out time. (Those at 8 am should arrive 07:40 am).
Remember that haul out can get ahead of schedule, or behind schedule, so please be patient and ready to go when you’re called in.
Fenders, lines, and sling pads must be in place by Friday evening. You must have a bow and a stern line at least 30’ long. Please lead them down so they are accessible from the ground.
Our major contact to you will be your cell phone and preferably by text, otherwise a cell call. Please make sure your cell phone is up to date on the list of captains and boats. Please call Becky 519-373-6101 by Thursday at the latest with correct cell phone so the list can be updated. If you have another member hauling your boat out please notify us by e-mail. If you have no cell phone, then tell us that too.
Please park outside the property, as near your assigned gate as possible.
We require members to wear a mask to protect your selves and your fellow club members and the crane crew. Please bring your own mask if possible.
Once your boat is Hauled, keep you distance and you can work on your boat.
For all question or if you can volunteer, please contact Mike Forcier
mike@greybrucelaw.ca or his office at 519-372-0722. If there is a problem during Haul Out you can also reach Mike at 519-372-5960.

Dear GYC Members,
The Haul Out Meeting will beheld Saturday, October 2nd at 9am in the picnic shelter.
Attending the meeting is especially important if this is your first haul out with the club, or if you have any special requests or requirements. If you cannot attend the meeting please contact Mike Forcier.
Cradle moving is Saturday October 16th at 9 am.
Haul out is scheduled for Friday October 22nd for the old gas dock, and Saturday October 23rd starting at 8am for the rest of the club.
Schedules and work crew details to follow.
Dear GYC Members,
In light of some members preferring to break down their cradles after their boat has launched, we are noting that you are permitted to break your cradle down after your boat has launched, or later in the day, but to PLEASE BE MINDFUL of how many people are around you.
Maintain a safe physical distance, wear your masks, use your common sense. If there are other people in your area, consider coming back later. We are doing our best to limit the number of people on the property at once and are trying to adhere to public health guidelines. Please do your part.
Dear GYC members,
Cradle moving day is scheduled for Sunday, June 6th at 9am. If you have any questions please contact Mike Forcier.
mike@greybrucelaw.ca or by phone 519-372-0722
GYC Launch – Saturday June 5th May 2021
Dear GYC Members,
Please read carefully:
There are crews organized for each crane in the morning as well as the afternoon. The schedule is being finalized and will be e-mail to all members shortly. This keeps our numbers down on the property, keeps everyone safer and keeps us within the rules at this unprecedented time. Thank-you for understanding. The Board is trying to do its best.
Included with this email is a list with your launch time, your check in gate and cell # for the gate crew.
Arrive at least 30-45 minutes ahead of your launch time. (Those at 8am should arrive 07:40am).
Remember that launch can get ahead of schedule, or behind schedule, so please be patient and ready to go when you’re called in. If you are not able to attend the launch of your boat, you must notify the Launch & Haul out Director Mike Forcier at mike@greybrucelaw.ca or his office at 519-372-0722 no later than Friday June 4th 2021. If any questions or concerns, contact Mike. If there is a problem you can also reach Mike at 519-372-5960.
Fenders, lines, and sling pads must be in place by Friday evening. You must have a bow and a stern line at least 30’ long. Please lead them down so they are accessible from the ground.
Our major contact from the gate crew to you will be your cell phone and preferably by text, otherwise a cell call. Please make sure your cell phone is up to date on the attached list of captains and boats. Please call Becky 519-373-6101 by Thursday at the latest with correct cell phone so the list can be updated for the gate crews. If you have no cell phone, then tell us that too.
There will be one person working each gate.
Please park outside the property, as near your assigned gate as possible. When you arrive at the vicinity of the club property, notify the gate crew by text or cell phone call (or walk up to speak to them at the gate) . You will be directed by the gate crew to drive into the club just prior to your launch time. Please remain in your car and wait it out folks. (No family/friends this year).
The gate crew will be in touch with the crane crew with walkie talkies to coordinate boat captains in time for their launch.
You will be offered hand sanitizer at the gate entrances. We require members to wear a mask to protect your selves and your fellow club members and the crane crew. There will be garbage available for safe disposal of gloves or face masks should you choose to wear them. Please bring your own mask if possible.
Once your boat is launched, each boat captain will check their boat to insure a dry bilge and lines are secured, and moves vessel as necessary. The Captain then leaves the property and can return late in the day or the next day.
Checks will be performed at the end of the day to ensure boats are safe and secured.
Emergency sump pump will be up in the upper doorway of the clubhouse in case of emergency.
Cradle moving will take place Saturday June 6th 9:00am Names are to be painted on all cradles. No ladders to be left attached to cradles.
