Frequently Asked Questions
These are the commonly asked questions related to the marina rebuild and reorganization.

  1. How do I know if I was assigned a temporary slip?
    Check the latest temporary slip assignment list.

  2. I missed the deadline for the temporary slip. How do I get a temporary slip?
    All available slips have been assigned. A waiting list has been established. To get on the waiting list, you must complete the application and submit to the address found on the application.

  3. Where can I find the new temporary slip lease?
    The approved temporary slip lease can be found here.

  4. Where can I find the new Harbor and Slip Regulations?
    The approved Harbor and Slip Regulations can be found here.

  5. How do I contact the Municipal Marina Board?
    The official address for the MYHMC as contained on Page 2 of the Slip Lease agreement is:  "Director of the Department of Property Management, Room 5W08, 1300 Perdido Street, New Orleans, Louisiana, 70112, Attention: President, New Orleans Municipal Yacht Harbor Corporation"

  6. Where do I send my boat insurance information?
    The official address for the City of New Orleans to be used for the required insurance is:"Director of the Department of Property Management, Room 5W08, 1300 Perdido Street, New Orleans, Louisiana, 70112, Attention: Director, Department of Property Management"

  7. How much hull insurance must I carry?
    The requirement "...public liability and property insurance in the form of a marine hull insurance policy covering the replacement cost of the Vessel...", shall be satisfied by a hull policy for "Actual Cash Value".
  8. Do I need to have the MYHMC listed on my hull insurance?
    MYHMC should only be listed as an "additional Insured" for the liability insurance, not the hull insurance. If you wreck your boat or someone runs into you and damages your boat, MYHMC has no interest in that event. Any checks from your insurance company for comprehensive coverage would go directly to you 
  9. I have a small (or old) boat that does not have much value, so I don't carry a hull policy.  Is this OK?
    You must have a hull policy that complies with the insurance requirements of the lease.
  10. What if my boat is small enough that is is covered by my homeowner's policy?
    You must have a separate policy on your boat so that you can comply with all the provisions of the lease insurance requirements.
  11. What if my insurance company will not name MYHMC and the City as additional insured's and loss payees?
    You must have insurance that fulfills the requirements of the lease insurance section.
  12. What if my insurance company will not send a replacement certificate of insurance 30 days in advance of renewal?
    You must have insurance that fulfills the requirements of the lease insurance section.
  13. What happens if I do not complete my application by Tuesday 03/31/09?
    You will lose your provisional slip assignment. Boats on the waiting list where a suitable slip is available will be assigned a provisional slip pending completion of the application process.
  14. If I had a slip before the storm, why can't I keep my old slip?
    Until the harbor is fully restored, the harbor will operate in a temporary mode where only the west pier will be used. The north and east piers will be closed with gates installed at their entrances. This is a temporary remedy until the harbor is restored. When the harbor gets rebuilt, the application process will work very similar to the temporary slip assignment process.
  15. How do I get off of the eviction list?
    If you appear on the eviction list and you have completed the provisional application process before March 31, 2009, email Ric Smith with the following information: Your Name, Boat Name, Slip # and Application #. The application # can be found here. Find your name on the list. The application # appears in the left most column next to your name.
