Moorings & Yard Fees
It is the members' responsibility to book all you need for upkeep of your craft, e.g. Contract Crane and/or Club Crane Season Ticket at the beginning of the Season when prompted, as well as RENEW and pay for your moorings and yard storage as required. If you wish to change your mooring or storage rather than simply renew the same as last year, please contact Karen in the office, admin@royalforth.org.
You are also able to book use of the Contract Crane or Club Pillar Crane via the website, as well as in the usual way via the Yard and Harbour Manager and his diary.
Paper copy forms for those that require them are also available in the downloads section of the respective Season page in the menu bar: 'Lift In (Summer)' & 'Lift Out (Winter)', to the left of this page.
