Marina News & Some Rules:
"A" Dock Customers Please Be Patient With Us During Our Bulkhead Modification Work. Both Docks Will Have Some Power And Water Interuptions During The Next Phase Of Work.
Also Please Put Your Garbage In The Dumpster And Don't Leave It On The Dock. Repeat Offenders Will Get A 30 Day Notice To Vacate Your Slip!
Dogs Must Be On A Leash At All Times When Not On Vessel.
The City Of Gig Harbor Has A Leash Law.
Except For Small Boarding Steps Please Keep All Pesonal Items Off Docks And Walkways. (Kayaks, Fuel Cans, Hoses, Batteries, Building Materials, Canvas, Tenders & Ect)
YOU MUST RUN AN APPROVED WEATHERPROOF SHOREPOWER CORD FROM THE PEDESTAL TO YOUR BOAT!
Standard Extension Cords Conneceted To Your Shorepower Pedestal By An Adapter Are Not Allowed. Just Think For A Moment... Our Power Pedestals Have 30 Or 50 Amp Breakers And Regular Extension Cords Are Only Rated For 15 Amps. It's All To Easy To Exceed The Cords Rated Capacity And Cause A Fire.
At 120 Volts
15 Amps = 1800 Watts
30 Amps = 3600 Watts
50 Amps = 6000 Watts
Please Try To Keep Your Electrical Load Below 90% Of Your Shorepowers Breaker Capacity.
Always turn your shorepower breaker off when plugging or unplugging your shorepower cord to prevent electrical arcing.

Please Do Not Park Your Car In A Way That Prevents The Travelift (Boat Hoist) From Reaching The Pier. In The Event Of An Emergency We Will Have Car(s) Towed In Order To Haul A Vessel In Distress! We Also Scheadule Some Work To Occur After Hours Or Weekends.
