REPORTS REPORTS Ale Shek Marine Operations The Marine Office would like to take the opportunity to wish all our members and staff a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for 2016. We sincerely wish everyone a year of good health, wealth and happiness. Marine facilities We finished our regular checks of the usage of the mooring / pontoon and hardstanding in August 2015. A friendly reminder that any member replacing his/her existing craft must submit a written application and obtain approval in writing from the Marine office BEFORE the replacement craft is placed on any Club Marine Facility. Members are not allowed to change their craft more than twice, in a one-year period. Members selling any craft on a club swing mooring, pontoon berth or hard stand are responsible for notifying the Marine Office within seven days of the sale and they must ensure that the craft is removed from the Marine facility within two weeks of the transfer of ownership. If the craft is not removed within this two-week period, the General Committee may take follow-up action if necessary, and any expenses incurred will be charged to the member(s) concerned. We would like to remind the membership about a regulation, in effect since August 2013, which stipulates the sampans cannot take members to or from Shelter Cove Pontoons or to Hong Kong Marina.
