Haul out schedule Boats may haul out following racing Sunday or are encouraged to remain in the water for free until Monday to minimize congestion. On Monday there will also be more time to stay on site & de rig. Please be sure your trailer is ready when queuing to pull. When your boat is on its trailer and prepped for road travel it needs to be promptly moved off site to make room for more boats coming out of the water and member use of the Club. On Sunday, CYC Member Brunch will be taking place so please be respectful and try to preserve traffic lanes in the lot. Follow the traffic pattern on the next page so we can keep things moving smoothly

5 3) Dockage & space assignment Overnight dockage is charged at a rate of $2.50/ft per night and will be charged to your Guest card The following page is a map of space assignments for Race Week. Please follow these assignments in order to avoid confusion and preserve space for use by CYC members who allow Race Week participants to use their facilities. Do not park outside of your assigned zone. Melges 20 s and J70 s will be rafted. If you are not comfortable rafting your boat please make accommodations to dock elsewhere. We simply do not have enough room on the dock to do otherwise. Keep in mind what looks like empty space is there by design and reserved for CYC Member use only. Do not park your boat there. A map of dockage assignment is on the following page 4) Parking, facilities, resources Parking is incredibly limited We have far more dock space than ground space. Please carpool, park off site & walk in. 1 car per team maximum honor system. The Club will be in full swing during the week with dinners and other events so please be sure to make every effort to leave open space for members to park and use their club. It s important for the future of hosting guests at CYC for race week. Power and water are available on the dock. Restroom and a shower are available in the Boathouse. To access the boathouse facilities use the West door, enter code 1,3,5 and turn the knob clockwise.
