Docks Report

SEATTLE DOCKS

Our roofing contractor will be tearing down and re-skinning the roofs on cover units # 22, 23, and 24 on dock #2 as numbered from shore-side. This is a necessary project to meet our safety objectives with regard to earthquake and snow-fall preparedness. The greatly reduced weight also assures a longer, more trouble free lifespan for the underlying structures.

The work begins about July 8th with the roofing teardown to commence July 10th. Insurance requirements dictate that we evacuate all vessels moored beneath these roofs. Here is a most un-firm schedule that should represent something like the worst case scenario for these demands upon us. The listed slips will need to be vacated at these times. Even numbers = north side, odd numbers = south side.

•    Slips greater than #257 – not affected.
•    Even: 246-256 (6 boats) July 8 – July 18.
•    Even: 238 –244 (4 boats) July 8 – July 25.
•    Even: 210 –234 (13 boats) July 8 – Aug 8.
•    Odd: 247-257 (6 boats) July 10 – July 18.
•    Odd: 237-247 (6 boats) July 15 – July 25.
•    Odd 233, 235 (2 boats) probably not affected.
•    Odd 219-231 (7 boats) July 24 – Aug 8.
•    Odd numbers: 209-217 (5 boats) - Not affected

This schedule will be modified as work progresses. The actual time spans should be a little shorter than shown and some may have to vacate ahead of this schedule.

30 or more vessels may be displaced at times during this project and the club needs any vacant slips during this month long process. If you will be leaving your slip empty for 4 or more days, please call the office at 206-709-2000 and let us know your slip can be used for temporary boat storage. Tenants of slips 210-257 who have difficulties with this timing should call the office and leave a message for Captains Arthur Mauldin or Andy Foster. During this work, we must ask that slips at the club not be used for dinghy storage alone. Vacant slips really are desperately needed. We all thank you for your cooperation.
