  1. Rear Commodores’ Report Mary-Ellen Zwicker & Mike MacDonald Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report

  2. Rear Commodores Report • The RC Committees • Planning mooring field • Budgeting organizing Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report

  3. The RC Committees • The organization of the committees • Chair with members as needed(Task oriented) • Committees will be better defined in long term. • Be small and do something small • Develop budget, do the task, retain knowledge • Chairs handle regular things • Special Project chairs handle “add ons” • The RCs and chairs will adapt committees to make the committees work. Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report

  4. The RC Committees • Developed a list of “must, should, and would like to” do (over $50,000) • We have to control budgets and restrain spending • We have limited budget but want to do something in most of the committees given we don’t know the state of the lease. Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report

  5. Priorities • Spend as little as possible on things we can’t move. • Risk Management. • Organizing the budget. Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report

  6. Projects on Land Repair fencing Replace the water system Two zone control, two hours at a time. Electrical inspection (required by Insurance Co.) 6 Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report 11/15/2014

  7. Projects afloat • Floating docks • Repaired and floated again • Adding rubber mats between docks • Pontoon boat • Winter cover (done) • Depth sounder (done) • Welding a safety cage for driver. Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report

  8. Projects that sink • Mooring field inspections and maintenance • Full mooring field • Replacing 6-8 mooring chains with nylon • Not adding any new moorings this year. Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report

  9. Mast Crane • Cannot afford to have it inspected and “rated” • Motion: The Mast Crane should be installed for members usage at their own risk in its present condition. Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report

  13. Current Situation of Field To get a starting point for calculations I am using two 30 foot vessels with painters that will let them get 5 feet from the mooring ball as the basis for calculations “Too close” indicates the vessels are with 5 feet of each other. Negative values indicate an overlap of that many feet. Calculations assume ball remains on surface, if ball is pulled under the distances are based on pennant length and unknown. (E3 was condemned and calculations are invalid) 13 Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report 11/15/2014

  16. Marking size of boats on mooring balls The length of boat is considered acceptable if all possible distances in a column are positive. (E3 was assumed to be a 26 ft nylon line) Maximum size of a boat on a mooring assuming a summer low of 1.3 meters and using the existing chains. (x indicates a boat less than 16 feet is too big to swing on that mooring.)

  21. Assuming a Custom Mooring Line at surface at upper wharf less 1 meter • Marking sizes on mooring balls. • This does not mean that the mooring block is heavy enough to hold a boat of that size. Sizes of mooring blocks are yet to be determined. • Reducing the length of the mooring line reduces the holding power of the mooring, which makes the size of the mooring block more important. 21 Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report 11/15/2014

  23. How do we proceed? • Start from scratch • A boat “L” long can go anywhere? ( What is “L”? ) • Make areas for different sized boats • Plan on marking moorings for length. • How many moorings? • Live with what we have? • Proceed with Custom Mooring Lines? • Is overlap acceptable? 23 Spring 2009 F’ton Base RC Report 11/15/2014
