Mooring...What are your thoughts

When I applied for our moorings they would not allow us to use our PWC as registered vessels towards determining our need for the 2 moorings we have. I am not sure how associations such as South Down can get away with it.

Here is the link to the application we had to file:

Hi Codeman671,

The application indicates that they will not issue mooring permits for small craft that can be easily removed from the water. South Down has limited storage and a busy marina that precludes easy removal and storage. I agree that it is not easy to get a mooring...the process requires application to marine safety, a public hearing and ultimately, approval by the govenor's office. In addition, moorings are granted on the basis of how much frontage you have. Hope this clarifies things a bit.

Regards,
Jetskier

I use a half canoe with a trolling motor on it to get to my mooring, I also am going to use it to fish. I leave it hooked up to the mooring when I take my boat out. are you telling me I cannot do this? They will tow it away or ticket me, that doe snto make sense if it is the case
