Boat Yard Policy

The following policy applies to storage of all craft and gear in the KCC Boat Yard adjacent to and within the KCC Ward Street fenced area and the Sutherland Shire Sailing Club Inc(SSSC) yard. The KCC Boat Yard Storage Policy are the rules determining eligibility and priority to store in the KCC Boat Yards (including SSSC yard) due to limited available storage places. The Boat Yard policy is reproduced in full as part of the KCC Membership Form, which can be downloaded from the KCC Membership page.

  2. Boat Yard Fee must be paid up to date
  3. The Boat must be sailed regularly at KCC least regular sailed boats are first to be asked to leave.
  4. Multihulls have preference over all other craft, including trailers etc
  5. One Boat Yard Fee implies one space (i.e. trailer boat(s) must combined only occupy 1 space.)
  6. Boats willing to store with mast up (with mast adequately secured including halyards etc tied off to avoid noise) will be given first preference in SSSC yard.
  7. Physical security and tie down of Boats Trailers remains the responsibility of the owner.
  8. All boats stored must have adequate third party personal and property insurance.
  9. Boat Yard Fees apply from 1st September each year (i.e. when you renew, your boat yard fees will cover you for one year from 1st September). New Members who join mid year and wish to pay yearly will be charged $1 per day to 1st September or the full yearly fee, whichever is the lesser amount. Paying less than the full amount in this manner does not include Pre-Pay Race Fees.
  10. Casual Boat Yard Storage (less than 30 days) is subject to availability and discretion of KCC Executive Committee and must have Commodore, Race Secretary or Assistant Race Secretary approval and is $10 per week with $10 minimum. For Casual Boat Yard Storage, no key will be issued or lent and hence casual storage must coordinate entry/exit of boats with the KCC.
  11. Boat Owners and other persons store their craft and gear at entirely their own risk.Kurnell Catamaran Club Incorporated, Sutherland Shire Sailing Club and individual Club Members will not accept any liability for loss, theft, material damage or personal injury or death sustained in conjunction with, or prior to, during, or after the storage activity. Also refer to the KCC Disclaimer which additionally applies.
  12. Boat Owners and other persons storing boats, trailer and equipment   are responsible for ensuring they lock the gates of the boatyard (and any buildings or other fenced areas, such as the garages of KCC/SSSC and main doors of KCC and side doors of SSSC).  If they are the last to leave on a Club sailing day or are sailing at any other time they should secure the yard/building before they leave.  On days other than club sailing days the yard and building must be locked at any time that the yard or building is unoccupied.
  13. The offer of Boat Yard Storage is strictly limited and Kurnell Catamaran Club Incorporated reserves the right to withdraw the offer of storage in one or more of the boat yards in its entirety at any time. Reasonable attempts will be made to contact the boat owner.   All boat owners will have a maximum of 30 days from the original notice (which may be posted on one or more of KCC Notice Boards, KCC Cat Chat, KCC Website or physically on the boat) to remove their boat, trailer and equipment from storage or it will be evicted. Withdrawal of the storage offer in one boat yard DOES NOT automatically entitle the boat owner to store their boat, trailer and equipment in the other boat yard.
  14. In the event that storage fees are overdue for a period of 3 months the Kurnell Catamaran Club Incorporated shall have the right to sell the boat, trailer and equipment at a price determined by the executive committee of the KCC as fair and reasonable.
  15. In the event that a boat, trailer or equipment are sold in accordance with Clause 14 the remainder of the sale price after the deduction of storage fees will be paid to the boat owner.
