* Clarification: The
manufacturer's "length name" used in the marketing
of the boat does not
always reflect the physical length in either
direction, longer or shorter. To avoid ambiguity,
the Broadview Board has decided to accept the
definition of boat length to match the definition as
specified by the
New
Hampshire Marine Patrol.
See page 4 of the 2002-2003 Edition of the
"Boater's Guide of New Hampshire".
 "Boat
length
is measured from the tip of the bow in a straight line
to the stern. This does not include outboard motors,
brackets, rudders, bow attachments or swim platforms
and ladders that are not a molded part of the hull."

The four basic
Broadview requirements to protect both boats and docks
from severe and repetitive wind
& wave action:
(required in the outer
marina, suggested in other areas)
1) Use at least 1/2"
diameter nylon
lines in all areas (required everywhere)
2) Double up on critical lines to help prevent breakaway boats (required in outer marina)
3) Use line shock absorbers like snubbers to protect
lines, boats and docks from shock damage during windy
weather. (required in outer marina)
4) Use at least 8" x 24" fenders to protect boats and docks from shock damage during windy weather. (required
in outer marina)
In the few inner-marina cases that
may involve protection of Broadview property or other owner
property, the marina committee may request certain tie-up
improvements. Considering the high price of boats and
docks, this should prove to be extremely inexpensive insurance !

#1 & #2
Use at least 1/2" lines and double-up
on critical lines to help prevent breakaway boats.
Long lines are usually much more effective
than short lines. |
#3
Use line shock absorbers like snubbers.
(FYI: The fancy line storage is called "flemishing".)
|
|
#4
An 8" x 24" fender is more like a
shock absorbing pillow rather than
the small anti-abrasion fender typically found on quiet
lakes.
This may at-first seem like overkill but during an
ocean-like Broads storm,
these will be pushed to the max to protect both the dock and your boat.
