2025 Parking Permit Reminder

The new 2025 parking passes are available for pick up. Make sure that when you come up to pick up your new passes, you bring the old ones with you. This is also a good time to update any vehicle info that might have changed. It’s a good idea to list all vehicles that you plan on bringing to the marina.

Dock Etiquette – Noise

Secure your halyards! In addition to being bad manners, the continuous slapping of lines and hardware against the mast eventually damages the aluminum finish, whether it’s coated or anodized. If the clanging is from the halyards, the snap shackles should be unclipped from the sails and secured away from the spars while the boat is at dock. Bungee cords also work well. Plastic tarps are not harbor awnings or an “alternative” to fixing leaks, not to mention how tarps look. Covers should be made of canvas, either natural or synthetic. Both fabrics, when properly tensioned, are nearly silent in anything less than gale conditions.

Package Delivery

Tenants will sometimes receive packages in our offices. We kindly ask that when you get a call from us, you pick up your packages as soon as possible. The office has very limited space, and at
times it can get crowded with boxes. If you are not a liveaboard, you should not be getting mail or packages at the Grand Marina office. Any mail that arrives will be returned to sender.

Drop Off Box

Did you know that Grand Marina has a rent slot box where you can drop off your monthly checks? It is located next to the mailboxes that are directly behind the parking lot and the large port hole. Since the marina office is still currently closed, you can just drop it off on your way in or out of the marina.

Please Remember…

…It is a violation of Marina Rules and Federal Law to discharge untreated sewage into the Marina. Grand Marina reports all violators to the US Coast Guard.

Insurance Reminder

All of our tenants should be aware that if you have your boat in our marina it must be insured with a minimum liability amount of $300k. And most of you readily comply when it is renewal
time. It is your responsibility to make sure that we have a copy of your current insurance certificate. Please remember failure to provide this information can result in termination of your
tenancy. Some major insurance providers will no longer automatically send copies to listed marinas. This means it is solely up to you to make sure we get a copy of your renewal.

Information Update

If you have changed your address or phone number, email or vehicles, please contact the Harbor Office to provide us with the new information. It is very important that we are able to contact you, especially in the event of an emergency with your vessel.
