Guest mooring

The Deer Isle Yacht Club maintains a guest mooring considered suitable for yachts to about 40 feet in length.

Although the club makes every effort to ensure the optimal condition of the guest mooring, the club does not guarantee the adequacy or safety of the mooring.  The club assumes no responsibility for the use of the mooring and anyone using the mooring does so at their own risk.

The mooring is provided primarily for the use of guests of members.  Members shall not use the mooring except in an emergency.

No charge shall be made for the use of the mooring.

Use of the mooring is on a first come, first served basis and may not be reserved in any manner.

The maximum stay shall be 24 hours. Any member may request any officer of the club to enforce the 24 hour limit.

A tenant membership does not confer any right to the use of the guest mooring.

Island moorings

As part of the renewed effort of rigorous maintenance of ground tackle, the club will be making sure that there are two so-called island moorings.

These are moorings for use by members who are coming in from the islands and need to temporarily tie up while running errands.
The idea is to reduce the likelihood of someone having to leave their boat at the dock for an extended period.

These moorings will be clearly marked and the club’s dinghy can be used to get back and forth if needed.

These are for members living on the islands in the bay who do not have personal moorings in the cove and are to be used for a maximum of 24 hours at one time.
