[J24 ListSrv] Haul out requests and news... Zebra Mussels

[Randy Gould]

A note from the Commodore:

We're at the beginning of haul out season and I wanted to recap the message regarding Zebras we need to convey to our members.

When hauling or launching your boat ensure the following

 1.  Clean Hull
 2.  Dry Bilge
Our crane should make it very easy to inspect for these items. Some boats have places were Zebras could maybe hide, it is your responsibility to consider this and inspect.

WYC will have a power-washer available this spring should you find a huge infestation of zebras (you won't). Anything our sailboats might have should be able to be brushed off.

Permits are available should you have to transport your boat from WYC with bilge water in the hull or creatures on the hull. Personally, I strongly discourage this as it's too easy to simply do the job properly before you leave.

Let's take care of our water ways!
