§ 3-04 Guests.

RCNY § 3-04

Access to the the Marinas by Guests is subject to the following conditions: (a) All Guests and Permittee Family must comply with these rules. Anyone who fails to comply with such rules may be expelled from the Marinas. Anyone who repeatedly fails to comply with the rules may be permanently barred from the Marinas. Permittees are responsible for the conduct of their guests and family members. Violations of these rules by Guests and/or Permittee Family can be grounds for termination of the Permittee's Permit in accordance with 56 RCNY § 3-06(g).

(b)In the interest of safety, the Dockmaster may limit the number of occupants on a Vessel. In no cases shall the number of persons on board a Vessel exceed the manufacturer's builders plate.

(c)A Permittee must notify the Dockmaster in writing of any person who will be boarding his or her Vessel when the Permittee is not in the relevant Marina.

(d)If a Permittee intends to have a Guest remain overnight on his or her Vessel while the Permittee is not on board, a pass must be obtained from the Dockmaster. Guests may not stay overnight on a Vessel when the Permittee is not on board without a pass from the Dockmaster. The Dockmaster may refuse or terminate the pass if he or she has reason to believe there has been a transfer of the right to occupy the Vessel by the Permittee to the Guest. This pass may be issued for up to one month. No Guest may remain in the World's Fair Marina or Boat Basin for longer than one month while the Permittee is absent, although the Dockmaster has discretion to extend this limit for good cause.
