Environmental and Yard Rules Additional rules apply at their yard, mainly regarding the environment:
- In the shed, no outboard motors may hang from the vessel and no gas tanks may be left in your vessel.
- For sailing yachts with a fixed keel, a derrick is mandatory, unless you adapt your own.
- Masts should lie - with stays etc. tied up - flat on the deck.
- Welding and grinding work must always be reported first, and surrounding boats must be properly covered.
- While working on your boat, you are obliged to put a tarpaulin under the boat. After work, the place must be cleaned up thoroughly.
- Batteries, paint cans, etc. should not be stored under the boat. Empty cans, brushes, etc. should be disposed of with chemical waste (sort!). Bulky waste such as wood, steel, etc. must be disposed of yourself.
- You can hand in broken batteries at your supplier (Bouwmeester also supplies batteries).
- If your boat is stored outside, you must ensure that it is properly and sufficiently covered.
In the event of damage and work resulting from non-compliance with the yard rules, they are obliged to pass on the costs (at €48.50 per hour excluding VAT) to you.
