Registration
Watercraft, including such things as jet skis and boats must be registered if they will be operated from the property of Sherkston Shores. This includes any watercraft parked on the property or launching into Lake Erie from within the private property of Sherkston Shores. This will assist the Security Team in identifying your watercraft in the event of a water emergency. This is also important in identifying the owner in the event of such incidents as parking infractions, lost and found and others. Affix the registration to the trailer carrying the watercraft in a clearly visible location.
