GBOA Objectives
To represent the interests of all boat owners who use their boat in or around the east/north coast or launch their boats from Gorey Harbour:
- To seek continued improvements and the on going maintenance to an acceptable standard of the Gorey Harbour facilities and the surrounding areas for all boat owners and other users of Gorey.
- To provide oversight on the misuse of moorings by other boat owners.
- To maintain close relations and to work together with Ports of Jersey in representing our members thus achieving the best policies for both parties. Examples of collaboration include the successful lobbying to the Islands Treasury and Resources Minister to retain duty-free marine fuel for all Island Boat Owners.
- Strengthening our membership numbers will assist the Association in its objectives by achieving the best possible results for our members. Whether a member owns a ten-foot dingy or a fifty foot luxury yacht, every Boat Owner has the same voice. We, as the Gorey Boat Owners Association are most effective when we have the support of as many Boat Owners as possible and in this context we would ask you if you are not already a member, to join the Gorey Boat Owners Association and give us the opportunity to make a difference. If you are already a member please speak to your neighboring Boat Owner and spread the word.The annual subscription is currently £25.00 per member. The benefits of being a member include regular email updates, invitations to social events including the ‘Fitting Out Dinner’ and organized Rallies to French Ports and other Channel Islands through the course of the summer. As a member you will also be eligible for 10% discount on showing your membership card at the following establishments: Iron Stores Marine, South Pier Marine and DK Collins Marine.For more information about joining follow this link
