Every "off season" vicious wind storms rip through the Jericho Sailing Centre compound looking for loose tarps, boat covers and poorly stowed gear. When they find a loose tarp they can turn a docile hibernating boat into a flying projectile which can cause damage to neighbouring craft. Members are responsible for ensuring they have "battened down the hatches" on their equipment stored at the Jericho Sailing Centre and checking their craft after gnarly windstorms. We encourage you to check your craft regularly year round, remove any parts or equipment that can be easily removed (most thefts occur between Oct.-April) and make sure water doesn't collect inside your hull (if it freezes and expands it can cause major damage).  

As we transition from one year to the next we ask all members to consider their craft usage plans for 2011.

There is a waiting list of 22 JSCA members wanting to get their craft in to the Jericho Sailing Centre compound. Members storing craft in the compound which appear to have been inactive in 2010 will be sent letters later this month notifying them that their craft will be ineligible for storage after the current storage agreement expires on March 31, 2011. Members who receive these letters do have the right to appeal, however, no member has the right to store an inactive craft at the Jericho Sailing Centre.
