Membership Survey

The board is committed to continually improving the member experience at Water Rats. To help us understand the areas for improvement and where we're doing well, we'd like to invite you to participate in an anonymous survey. You'll have the opportunity to rate the club in various areas and provide feedback and overall comments. Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey.

Rule Change

We continue to experience issues with boats appearing at the club without obtaining stickers. As a reminder, members are only permitted to store the boats listed in their profile. It creates a lot of unnecessary volunteer work to determine the owners of these boats, and a result the executive has decided to apply a fine in cases where boats are brought to the club and not registered. Rule 12 has been changed as follows (change in italics).

12. Club stickers must be affixed to all boats and trailers kept at WRSC. Failure to affix current stickers may result in a member’s boat or trailer being removed from the Club. If a member changes or brings a new boat or trailer to the Club, new stickers must be obtained from the Membership Rat or other member of the Executive before bringing the boat or trailer to the Club. Any boats found at the club without a sticker, or where the sticker is not registered to any member, will be subject to a fine of $100. 

Unidentified Boats

There are a few unidentified boats at the club. If one of them belongs to you, could you please contact the Membership Rat. Given that these boats arrived at the club before the rule change, we will not be applying the fine.

Floating Dock

Many of you might have noticed a large dock washed up on the beach of our club.The Port Authority has been notified and they will return to sort out its removal!

Enjoy the winter! Less then four months until we're back on the water!
