Harbor Regulations Include Insurance Requirement

The select board will hold a public hearing on Monday, Nov. 23 at 7 p.m. on new and amended harbor regulations.

These include an amendment to the mooring rules. As proposed by the Provincetown Harbor Committee, it would call for boats to be removed from moorings on Nov. 15 instead of on Dec. 31. The proposed rule states that no boat can over-winter on a mooring.

Another new rule would require that “the owner of any vessel entering or being used in the waters of Provincetown Harbor shall maintain liability insurance,” the rule states. Proof of liability insurance must be provided to the harbormaster upon the date of first entry into the harbor or with a completed mooring application renewal.

There are exemptions for transient vessels, boats under 20 feet that are not motorized or with an outboard motor of 30 horsepower or less.

Houseboats, however, are not exempt from the proposed insurance requirement.

Those without insurance “would be subject to removal by the harbormaster.” —K.C. Myers
