Vessels shall be berthed or moored by the Member in such a manner and position as the Club may require and necessary warps and fenders shall be provided and maintained by the Member.  Members must ensure that warps securing boats are sufficient strength to do the job properly.  Members should ensure that fenders aresufficient in number and are large enough to prevent damage in rough conditions.

25  

No vessel shall be made fast to any other vessel within the marina, without the direct permission of the Secretary, the marina/ Yard Sub-Committee Chairman, or a Flag Officer.

   

BERTH LICENCE

26  

In the interests of safety, Berth Licences may only be held by Members with a proven competence to handle their boat in the close confines of PCM to the satisfaction of the Chairman of the marina/ Yard Sub-Committee or an Officer of the Club nominated by him.  This consideration applies to all persons to whom the Member may at times delegate responsibility for taking charge of the handling of the vessel in PCM.

27  

Each berth has apre-defined size.  All boats will not exceed that designated size for any reason. All berth-holders may have their boats measured on land to verify their stated dimensions.

28  

No changes inberth positions are allowed except by order of the Secretary.

29  

No moving up ordown in berth size except via the waiting list.

30  

No berth should have a boat LESS than 5ft of its designated size in it, at any time.

31  

If, when offered, a berth is not satisfactory in any way then the advice should be not to takeup the offer, but to wait for the next available berth.

32  

No Member may have or share two boats in the marina, thus a Member may only have one licence for one berth in the marina.  These Licences are granted annually.

33  

Nothing in the Licence shall entitle a Licence Holder to the exclusive use of a particular berth.   All vessels in the marina maybe moved by the Club to any other part of the marina from time to time asthey see fit.

34  

The Licence Holder shall not transfer or assign the berth allocated to him/ her.  If a Member wishes to relinquish a berth, two months’ notice is to be given.  No refund of berthing fees is to be paid until a berth has been re-let.  The incoming berth holder will be invoiced for fees from the date of PCM confirming (the Member’s) verbal acceptance ofthe vacant berth.

35  

The club reservesthe right to cancel the berth licence of any Member who is deemed by the Committee to be in breach of these conditions.

   

SHARED BOATS IN BERTHS

36  

The Annual Licence will be in the name of one voting Member who is the owner or majority owner of the vessel, not a family or minority owner.  Where equal shares are held, one of the owners only is to be nominated as the Licence Holder.  Members who are part owners and are not the nominated Licence Holder may elect to lodge a separate deposit and join the Waiting List.  It should be understood that when the nominated Licence Holder ceases to require the berth, it would be offered to the Member at the top of the Waiting List.  A Berth Licence will not be passed to the part owner, spouse or family Members unless they are at the top of the appropriate category of the Waiting List.

37  

If, before departure, the Licence Holder notifies the Club of his intended absence formore than 60 hours he will then be entitled to 50% of any casual licence fees collected by the Club in his absence. Casual berth fees will be collected on all occasions except where waived at the discretion of the marina and Yard Committee.

38

 

Berthing fees will be collected 12 months in advance. Prolonged absence from the berth does not entitle the Member to arebate.  However, PCM Bye-Law 37 will apply.

39  

Absence of the Member’s boat from his berth for more than 364 days, will lead to forfeiture of the berth.

40  

The Member shall leave the keys of his vessel in the care of the Club office.  (This is for staff use in emergency, e.g.fire, seawater ingress).

41  

Berth Licence Holders may use the slipway at no charge to launch and recover their own tenders.  Power is available from lockable, metered sockets.  Trips witches limit the supply to about 5 amps per boat.

42  

Except in the case of vessels using a re-circulating or holding tank system, lavatories aboard vessels must not be used whilst the vessel is in the Haven.  Lavatory facilities are provided ashore.

43  

Dates for slipping or re-launching cannot be guaranteed.

44  

Berth Holders may not make any permanent attachments to the pontoons without prior authorisation from the Club Secretary. Unauthorised fixings will be removed and any damage to the pontoon made good at the berth holder’s expense.

   

MARINA WAITING LIST APPLICATION

45  

The procedure and conditions for a Member to obtain a place on the Waiting List for a berth in the marina are as follows:

   

a)    On receipt of a deposit for the appropriate berth size, the Member’s name willbe added to the Waiting List for the nominal size of berth requested, and thedate noted.

   

b)   Deposits are the equivalent of one year’s Annual Berth Licence fee for the berth size selected.

 PORT CYPRIUM MARINA YACHT CLUB

GENERALBYE-LAWS FOR MARINA,YARD AND SHED

Byelaws governing theuse of the Club’s premises excluding the Clubhouse
 

   

INSURANCE

REQUIREMENTAND DISCLAIMER

1  

If the Club is negligent or in breach of contract, either itself or through its employees, then it accepts that it will be liable to Members for any damages or lost property and legally recoverable as a result and it does not feel that it is right to try and limit that liability. That acknowledgement does not extend to the acts or omissions of individual Members acting as individuals rather than on behalf of the Club.

2  

The Club does not accept liability for negligence or breach of contract by any other party whether they be a Member, licensee, visitor, guest of another Member orotherwise.  The mere fact that a Memberor his property is damaged or, in the case of property, lost or stolen whilst on the Club premises (and in the absence of negligence or breach of contractby or on behalf of the Club) does not mean that any liability falls on the Club.

3  

The Club’s policy is to maintain reasonable insurance arrangements to enable it to meet anyliabilities, which properly fall upon it for negligence or breach of contract.  There is, however, a limit to the availability of such insurance. There may be economic or other restrictions making it unattractive or impossible to maintain all the cover which the Club would like.  The Club’s insurance will only cover its liability and so every Member should ensure that they maintain their own insurances and be prepared to claim on those.

4  

It must be remembered that the Club’s premises are, quite properly, frequented by people who are outside the control of the Club. The Club is not liable for the acts or omissions of such people.

5  

The Club has made various security arrangements to protect its premises and property and the property and other belongings of Members. The Club cannot guarantee the effectiveness of these arrangements or that they will always be in place. Members must therefore take their own precautions.

6  

Members are asked to bear in mind that we are all Members of the Club.  The Club is a Members’ Club and not a commercial organisation.  Many Members give their time and effort to the Club, exercising considerable dedication indoing so.  Please do not forget this if ever you should feel aggrieved.   

7  

 

It shall be held arequirement that the owner of any vessel or craft shall maintain insurance with reputable insurer in respect of:
a) Vessel coverage in an amount of not less than the full market value.
b) General third party cover to a limit any one occurrence:  MINIMUM OF £2,000,000.
All such insurances shall be so written to provide that the Insurers shall have no rights of recovery against PCM, Chalcolithic Enterprises Limited, the Committee and employees of the Club. It is a requirement of the Club that a copy of the current insurance certificate is lodged with the main office for reference.

   

USE OF PREMISES

16  

The use of the Club premises for carrying out any work on vessels is reserved for Members carrying out maintenance only, and for the Club’s franchisees.  Requests for other contractors to work on the premises must be made to the Secretary prior to their commencement on site.  The conditions under which the contractors are permitted to work are available from the Secretary.  Boat keys held in the main reception will not be given to Contractors unless the Member has given the Office Staff prior permission.  A Member wishing to have a friend to assist him in the work on his boat may do so if the Member is present and the friend is booked into the Club as a guest.

All applications for storage of vessels on the premises must be made to the Secretary on the appropriate form.

19  

Any vessel or vehicle on the premises may be moved by the Club without prior notice to the owner.

20  

Vessels stored at seasonal rates ashore will be hauled-out, launched or put afloat as near the end of the seasonal period as, in the Club’s opinion, tide, weather conditions and available facilities allow and in such sequence as to avoid moving other vessels for this purpose. If a Member requests the Club to haul-out, launch or move a vessel out of sequence, which requires other vessels to be moved, or special facilities, this will only be carried out at the expense of the Member and at the Club’s discretion.
