Private Boat Key Holder Policy
As a member of GPBLCC you may, for an additional fee, rent a boat key from the Club for the purpose of using and/or storing your private boat, kayak or stand up paddle board (SUB) on our property. Boat key holders must be full paying members. Boat key rentals must be renewed every year with your membership dues. Non-renewing members must remove their boat/kayak and return their key to the Club.
The following policies concerning the use of private boats have been established by the GPBLCC Board of Directors for the safe operation of the Club. These policies may be added to, deleted, or modified by a majority vote of the Board.
Rights and Responsibilities
As a boat key holder, the key you are being given as part of your additional payment entitles you to the following:
May to May access to the lake fishing/boating privileges – Catch and release only please!
Storage of one boat with proper identification at the boat storage area – NO TRAILER STORAGE or parking in the boat ramp area
Two boat maximum-space with prior approval and additional fee
Use of the lake for fishing for you and all members in your immediate family in accordance with State and Local Laws, proper licenses and equipment
Presence of one adult member 18 or over on boat/kayak or SUB at all times
ELECTRIC MOTORS ONLY
Privately owned kayaks and SUB users are subject to all rules and policies stated herein, including age limitations
Lifeguards on duty during operating hours have complete authority to enforce Club Rules and Regulations
SUB users are restricted to the designated use area when the club is open and will defer to lifeguards. Only one person on an SUB at all times.
All occupants of boats, kayaks, etc. and SUB users to wear life jackets.
NO ACCESS to any part of the property of GPBLCC during the off season, including the dam area
DO NOT use the shoreline for fishing or any of the club’s facilities in the off-season. You may only fish from your boat or the immediate area of the boat storage area.
DO NOT duplicate or attempt to duplicate boat keys
DO NOT transfer possession of your key to anyone
DO NOT park your boat at the Club’s boat dock at any time. This area is reserved for GPBLCC rental boats and our lifeguard boat.
Display current GPBLCC sticker on right front of your boat
Use trash containers provided on the property.
Report any abuse, vandalism, safety issues, or repair needs immediately to GPBLCC (during the season to the main office, during the off-season to any Board Member).
CLOSE AND LOCK THE GATE WHEN YOU ARE OUT ON YOUR BOAT
CLOSE AND LOCK THE GATE WHEN YOU LEAVE THE PROPERTY
Keep your boat chained and locked. GPBLCC assumes no liability for lost, stolen or damaged boats
Chain your boat to the racks provided. Do not chain your boat to the fence. Please do not store boats near the boat ramp where they may interfere with trailers backing in.
All boat key holders and each individual SUB user must sign a Waiver/Release upon request of GPBLCC (legal guardians signing for minors). Boat key holders are personally responsible for all individuals accompanying them. All boats/kayaks must display valid GPBLCC stickers. If a boat does not display a valid sticker it will be impounded until the owner can be validated.
We expect access to be restricted to use of the lake with your boat/kayak/SUB in a safe manner. It is Club policy that one adult member 18 years of age or older must be present on the boat/kayak at all times and accompany all SUB users. The gate must be locked at all times.
GPBLCC opens at 12pm on weekdays and 11am on weekends and holidays. Trailers are prohibited in the parking lot during club hours and must be removed well in advance of opening. Please do not attempt to back in your trailer or park your trailer in the lot when the club is open. Do not park your car or store trailers in the boat ramp area.
Boating During Club Hours
Should you use your boat when the Club is open, we expect that you will give the right of way to all non- motorized boats and SUB users on the lake and especially our lifeguard boat. Please stay clear of the swimming area and SUB designated use area when the Club is open.
Docking on Shore
Boat/kayak parking for anyone wishing to access the shoreline during Club hours is allowed ONLY at the shore line area near or past the sheds toward the back of the club. You must safely secure your boat and disconnect your motor. Boat/kayak/SUB owners take full responsibility for their property. The lake closes at 7pm. Private boats docked at the shore line should be returned to the boat ramp area at that time.
We expect that as a member of GPBLCC you will follow the rules and help us enforce them. We remind you that a boat key holder has restricted access to the lake and expect that you operate your boat/kayak/SUB in a safe manner.
As a courtesy to others, please be sure your boat does not interfere with or block access to someone else’s boat or block the boat ramp or entrance gate. Please place trash in cans provided. Club policy prohibiting glass containers or any glass items is extended to the boat area. DO NOT FEED DUCKS OR GEESE. Take home any unused food items or place them in the trash cans.
Having a boat key is a privilege. GPBLCC reserves the right to revoke this privilege and to take such other action as may be necessary against anyone abusing this privilege. GPBLCC also reserves the right to take possession of and otherwise dispose of boats/kayaks on its property that it deems to be unauthorized, unclaimed, or abandoned.
BOAT KEYS REMAIN THE PROPERTY OF GPBLCC. There is a $50.00 replacement fee for lost keys. Anyone not renewing membership and/or boating privileges must return their key prior to start of season. GPBLCC reserves the right to limit the number of boat keys issued each season.
NO GASOLINE MOTORS (INCLUDING DRY MOTORS), ALLOWED!!
