You will be placed on a “Transfer List” which is maintained by the date it was submitted. Requests will be honored as they become available. Please note, you may list on your request multiple locations, but only one mooring type.

All transfers will be executed automatically, without prior notification and are final. Permittee will be invoiced for any difference in mooring fees. Transfers stay on file until an appropriate mooring becomes available or the transfer is withdrawn in writing by the permittee. Transfers submitted by any permittee/partner on an account are binding on all permittees/partners.
