Temporary Launching and Retrieving restrictions at Par Harbour.

Dear Members,

As the weather is due to warm up (ever so slightly), you may wish to launch at Par over the holiday period.

Please be aware that our neighbouring business, Keynvor Morlift, presently have a large barge and machinery moored just outside of our slipway. Whilst launching and retrieving of boats will still be possible, the approach to the slipway will not be straight forward and you should allow additional time for yourselves and other users.

A stern anchor is also deployed on the seaward side and marked with a bouy.

The barge will be in place for approximately 3 weeks.

Club Updates

There have been a few items of interest that are worth sharing with you at this time:

• The executive Committee have recently secured a contract with Cornwall Defibrillators to instal and maintain a DeFib unit at the Harbour. It is likely to be mounted on the wall of the Pilots Office and will be available for emergency use by club members and an other user of the harbour complex. Training and awareness will be organised following installation
• We Have also purchased a First Aid Kit and Burns Point, these are located within the sign in shed
• All members are reminded that any correspondence relating to the boat club or any operations at Par Harbour should be directed through the committee. Individuals should not contact Imerys Managers or Agents without consulting the committee.
• Although Covid rules have been further relaxed in recent weeks, we should still observe basic instructions. ie if you are suffering from Covid symptoms you should stay away from the harbour. Revised sign in procedure, ie bring your own pen etc, should continue at this time.
• Members are reminded that up to date stickers should be displayed on both vehicle and boat, together with all persons entering the docks carrying their entry passes. Failure to do this may result in refusal of entry and use of the slipway.
• Although we held several Saturday morning meetings recently for new members we are still holding several membership packs that have not been picked up. Your last chance to pick up your pack will be at the AGM. If we still have packs after that time, those memberships will be terminated, and any fees paid will be refunded.
• Following the outbreak of war in Ukraine. The committee has voted unanimously to donate the sum of $5000 from club funds to the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal
