2/20/2019 Herfault Houseboat annual meeting!

Herfault Houseboat 2019 season annual meeting
We had our meeting at the Payne's this year- they are the new president for the association.  We are planning on taking the boat out on March 9th and will have it at OffShore to work on it for a few weeks.  We also have to have an insurance inspection done this year, so we will have to have some work done for that also. 
With all the work we are going to need to do this year- we are asking everyone to take a project and do it. Please keep track of your time and receipts so we can make sure we all do a fair amount- get a hold of Annie Payne to get your work project and schedule a time you are going down to do it. 
The work and associated charges are also one of the reason we are going to a straight fee for each time you use the boat, it will help us build up a financial reserve again.
We made a few new rules: 1- we won't be paying by the hour anymore, just a straight 100$ fee.  We DO still want you to fill out the forms and keep track of your hours on the generator and engines, to keep track of wear and tear. 2- Extra time will be a flat 250$ fee plus the 100$ fee per time period used that is extra. 3-If you use the propane- you are in charge of filling it and paying for it yourself- no reimbursements or credits will be made for propane anymore. 
We also could sell shares to help build our money reserve, there are 5 full shares available.  They can be sold as a full share for 2500$ with a 2000$ yearly fee, or 1/2 share for 1225$ and 1000$ yearly fee.  If you have any interested people, have them get a hold of me for the needed paperwork to get them on insurance and such.   
ALSO- please remember to watch for the mussel buildup on the engines and the pantoons.  If you have any questions or concerns- let me know! Thanks everyone! Have a fun SAFE SUMMER!!
