GLSBC Launch Day


When...

    The GLSBC launch is normally scheduled for the first weekend of May.  The winter weather usually breaks about two weeks prior to launch so everyone is scrambling those two weeks to get everything ship shape. 

    Each member's well and dock posts must be inspected.  Posts must be replaced if necessary.  Posts and docks must be painted before launch.  The club furnishes the posts and paint.  They can be found near maintenance building #1. 

    All members are required to work both Saturday and Sunday on the launch weekend.  The fleet is usually all in Saturday but club grounds, docks and buildings must be made ready for the summer season.  Members should refrain from working on their boats until all club work is complete. 

    On both the launch and haul out weekends the members are assigned to a 'work crew'.  Each crew will have a leader who works from the master plan.  See the 'Ship's Crew' link for details.
