Launch Information

Tell us who is launching your boat. If you plan to launch it yourself, you must still identify an alternate person to launch your boat in case of health issues on the day.

Person Launching the boat*

Mandatory Designated Alternate

Every boat owner launching requires a Designated Alternate who can be responsible for your boat in case you or your Delegate are unable to attend due to an emergency (illness or other). At a minimum, your Designated Alternate should be able to steer your boat under tow; if they can start your motor and navigate to your slip, that is of course preferred. If you do not designate an Alternate, you must provide approval for ABYC voluteers to be your Alternate. If you are launch crew only, you do not require an alternate - please select that option.

Alternate*

I have a Designated Alternate to launch my vessel
I do not have a Designated Alternate and I understand and agree for ABYC to launch my vessel unattended in case of health issues on launch day.
I am part of a launch crew and not launching a vessel.

Consent for launching unattended*

I understand that should I have urgent / emergency issues that prevent me from attending launch, I authorize ABYC to launch my vessel unattended because I have not identified an alternate to myself for launching.

I understand and agree that ABYC volunteers will tow my vessel to my assigned dock, secure it with the lines I have provided, and subsequently will evaluate it’s seaworthiness. In case of emergency, ABYC will contact me and I will be expected to immediately attend at the club (or direct someone else to do so on my behalf) to remedy any issue that could cause damage or peril to my vessel and/or club property.

I consent and agree for ABYC to launch my vessel unattended.*
