Adverse weather may affect Marina conditions and impair or block access to the Vessel from time to time.
Docks may be slippery or have a variety of surfaces, such as different wood, concrete, and steel. Wind and

update any changes within 30 days. All forms must be submitted to Property Management.
Marina Management is authorized to prohibit boat use by persons not listed with Property
Management. Failure to comply with the requirement may be considered a Group 2 violation by
the BOD.

liability coverage amounts. Failure to comply with the requirement may be considered a Group 2
violation by the BOD.
Repair of Vessels or Boat Lifts
1. All outside vendors hired by Unit Owners or Tenants, working on or around the marina, must
have proof of current liability insurance on file in the marina office. It is the Unit Owner’s

repairing any damages caused by an uninsured vendor working on a Unit Owner’s boat or slip
and/or working on a Tenant’s boat or slip will be deferred to the Unit Owner.
Moving Vessels Due to Marina Repairs or Emergency

Owner/Tenant fails, or refuses to remove a boat from the slip, the BOD may remove the boat at
the Unit Owner’s expense.
2. For purposes of Section 2.13(f) of the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions for
Lake Travis Lodges Marina in cases of emergency, or to repair, replace or otherwise work on the
docks, common areas, or slips, a non-conforming structure shall be interpreted to include a Vessel.
