Dear Ernie:
A mouse ate through one of my shoes: I will be replacing the shoes in the morning with a new pair. Do you want the left one which is unmoused in case you need a shoe for one of the other boats in the future?

As you all know, things have been tight in the boathouse lately. And we
have had some problems with people bumping and scratching boats when
moving boats off/on their racks and in/out of the boathouse.
Please be extra careful when moving boats around inside the boathouse,
when taking them in and out of the boathouse, and when putting them
on/off the boat slings outside. Also, we ask that people use socks on
both oarlocks to help prevent scratching other boats, and not to take
them off the oarlocks until the boat is outside the boathouse. (There
are quite a few pairs of socks available for your use oin two plastic
bags in the bottom area of the logbook table.)
And, if other people are around, it's a good practice to have two people
moving a boat on/off the boat racks and in/out of the boathouse--it
makes things easier and reduces the likelihood of bumping of scratching
other boats. So, please don't hesitate to ask someone else for help with
your boat. And, depending on where your boat is, in some cases it's
advisable to use the bolsters or step-stools in the boathouse to access
boats.
Thanks very much.
Best,
Ernie
