                                         ARREST
Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) knows no boundaries.
• In Australia, approximately 30,000 people sustain cardiac arrest outside
  hospital and are treated by emergency medical services (EMS) each year.
• An average of only 9% of its victims in Australia survive.
• It can happen anytime, anywhere and to anyone, even young athletes.
• Early defibrillation is the single most effective treatment for SCA.
• Defibrillation within three minutes of collapse can increase the chance of
  survival to over 70%.

BERTHING FACILITIES
                        Few clubs are able to offer either the quality or choice of berthing facilities
                        that are available to members of the Cruising Yacht Club of South Australia.
                        The Club has two marinas at North Haven, Marina East and Marina West,
                        both conveniently located and offering secure access and storage.
                        Additionally, our Port Vincent Marina on the beautiful Yorke Peninsula
                        is just 30 nautical miles across the gulf from North Haven.
                        It is not just its superb facilities that sets the CYCSA apart. Berth licence
                        owning members have the unique flexibility over the title of their berths
                        because of the Club’s freehold ownership of the land and water, a
                        considerable benefit not enjoyed by many other marinas.
                        Owners therefore have the opportunity to treat their berths similar to
                        freehold assets and can lease out or sell their berths through the Club
                        as their circumstances and boating needs change.

                        in hardstand berths.
                        Facilities include a magnificent horizontal-lift slipway, large radial crane,
                        a launch and retrieval ramp for the exclusive use of boats stored in our
                        hardstand berth facility and access to a workshop and maintenance shed.

                        SLIPPING & CRANE WHARF
                        The Club is rightly proud of its slipping facilities. It has its own horizontal-lift slipway which can handle
                        craft up to 20 metres and 25 tonnes. Adjacent to the slipway is the crane wharf with a fixed arm
                        1.6-tonne radial crane. The crane is for the use of members, staff and others that have been authorised
                        to use this facility. In and around the slipway are substantial work bench and maintenance facilities. Club
                        members receive discounted slipping rates* (conditions apply).

                        LAUNCH RAMPS
                        The dual lane launch and retrieval ramp within the Club premises ensures minimal waiting periods to
                        launch and is for the exclusive use of members with boats stored in the hardstanding area. The Club also
                        owns and operates the North Haven Public Boat Ramp. Fees paid ensure its maintenance for community
                        use and provide increased financial support for the Cruising Yacht Club of South Australia.
