Shoreline Marina Access
We have heard a growing chorus of frustration from Shoreline Marina slip holders who experienced impaired access to their boats during City-organized events. These events include the Long Beach Grand Prix, the Long Beach Marathon, the Gay Pride Parade and frequent TV and movie shoots. To help BOA better understand the scope of this problem, we are asking Shoreline boaters to provide a brief description of (1) the access problems that you experienced and (2) your suggestions for improvement, recognizing that boaters must coexist with these waterfront events.
Please email your comments to shorelineaccess@lbmboa.org.
The Long Beach Marinas Boat Owners Association (BOA), formed in 1960, exists for the soul reason of providing an amplification of boaters’ concerns to the city and marina management. So, instead of raising your lone voice to address a problem or raise a question, you can have your voice joined with the strength of many other boaters who feel as you do.
THERE IS STRENGTH IN NUMBERS!
Consider what Long Beach Marinas Boat Owners Association does for boaters like you.
· Monitors monthly meetings of City Council representatives where both Marinas are located so that we keep an eye on issues that might impact boaters. We also monitor the Marine Bureau monthly meetings.
· Observes and reports on important harbor developments of the Marine Advisory Commission (MAC) that may be of interest or concern to boaters.
· Notifies boaters with quarterly updates on a myriad of topics that can affect your boating lifestyle by publishing and distributing the Gangway Gazette.
Have a voice in the future for YOUR Marina!
