Dear OMTA member,

Thank you for being a part of the Orleans Marina Tenants Association and for showing your support for the local boating community.  As hurricane Gustav takes aim at the gulf coast we would like to ask you for your help in not only properly securing your boat but also checking on your neighbors boat to be sure he has done his due diligence in preparing for this threat.  If you know him and have noticed a deficiency please contact him and point it out.  If you are unable to do so, please let the OMTA know so that a board member or pier captain can attempt to contact him and or remedy the situation.  Obviously our boats are only as safe as our neighbors, so please help us help each other survive hurricane Gustav without any damage what so ever.

To remind you of the Orleans Marina’s official hurricane requirements we are attaching a letter from Harbormaster, Chuck Dixon, dated May 26, 2008.

Please visit the OMTA website www.omta.us for the most up-to-date information. 

Thank you.

Orleans Marina Tenants Association Board
