​

These rules shall apply to all slip owners, seasonal and short term slip renters, daily transients, and guests of Tome’s Landing Yacht Club (Marina). The rules shall be applied uniformly and consistently to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all Marina users. The Board of Directors of the Marina shall have the right to assess any slip owner up to $50.00 for each violation of these Marina rules. Slip owners will be notified by the Marina in writing of any violation. In the event that a violation becomes a continuing violation, the Marina Board of Directors shall have the right to assess any slip owner up to $50.00 per day for each day the violation continues after 10 days of the initial notification of violation. Violations may be appealed to the Marina Board of Directors.

(Marina surfaces for the purposes of these rules include the main walkways, individual pier walkways, and pier fingers.) Personal items may be stored in approved, permanently attached dock boxes on finger gussets – the triangular platforms where the fingers attach to the piers.

 

2. No commercial signs, notices, advertisements or other lettering shall be exhibited, inscribed, painted or fixed by any slip owner or renter on any part of the Marina infrastructure, without written consent of the Marina Board of Directors.
