Labor Day Family Cruise
In all the World, There's Only One
September 2–5, 2016

Tinsley Island, USA

 

     
                     

WHAT TO BRING
- Your own worms and fishing pole if you plan on participating in the Fishing Derby
- Your own SUP for the Paddleboard Race around the Island. There are some available on the Island, but we welcome you to bring your own.
- Reusable water bottles to minimize plastic use on the island.  

DOCKING PLAN
Labor Day Weekend Cruise welcomes 550 guests! To accommodate this large volume, we will use THIS docking plan, effective August 24. Please note that as of Wednesday, August 31, all boats on the Island must be in their designated position.

CONNECTING YOUR BOAT TO TINSLEY POWER 
On Tinsley Island, we recently installed new GFI power towers on Main, North and West Docks. If this is your first time brining your boat to the Island since that installation, you may need to get your boat tested for compatibility. We work closely with Roger at Reliable Marine Electronics who can assist with electrical corrections. Roger is based in Alameda and has a piece of equipment that will test your boat locally instead of having him travel all the way to Tinsley Island. You can reach Roger at 510-864-7141.

LAUNCH SERVICE
For members and guests arriving by car, there is a complimentary launch service to Tinsley Island from King Island Marina. Note that the reservation sheet for the Launch on Monday the 5th will be posted at 4:00pm on Sunday, September 4th at Main Dock.
