Bridge Opening
The pedestrian footbridge connects the to=
wn
with the railway station.
To avoid passengers missing trains - or
taking silly risks! – the bridge does not open f=
or
yachts for TEN MINUTES before the scheduled train departure times.
The departure times that affect us (as at
November 2009) are 0826; 1037; 1253; 1410; 1624; 1810; 1915; 2016.
Check, if your departure is time-critical=
, as
these times may change without us noticing!
Fuel =
If trying your language skills, take great care not to mis-pronounce the names – putting =
the
emphasis on the correct syllable is critical.
Get it wrong
and the names of Petrol and Di=
esel
sound very similar to Portuguese ears.
You may find
it’s simpler and safer to stick to English - but if you’re up for the
challenge, here are some tips.
Petrol =3D G=

emphasise syllable before last. =
Ask for Gas=
-oh-LEE-na.
Diesel =3D Gasóleo Accent over the middle ó ; emphasise it. Ask for Gas-OH-=
lee-o.
Paraffin =3D Petróleo Accent over the middle ó ;<=

Ask
for Pet-ROH-lee-o.
Unleaded=

Methylated Spirits is <=

Noise (Boats or Bars)
The marina
rules are that there should be NO excessive or obtrusive noise at any time;=
and
NO NOISE at all after midnight. (A=
nd
note that this includes US!)
The Marina Manager recommends the follow=
ing
action if you perceive a problem.
NOTE the date, time, source, nature and exten=
t of
the noise. Get others to agree with your assessment.
DON’T get involved yourself with the source of=
the
noise.
=
IMMEDIATELY, contact Security and
report your concerns, by using:-
a) VHF Ch. 9,
b) Marina Security Patrol’s mobile telephone number, posted on the not=
ice
boards at the pontoon ramps, in “Contacts” pages, and inside the cover of t=
his
booklet.
c) Speed dial *7 116 on the yellow “Emergen=
cy”
phones, which goes to the Security Company Central Office.
CHECK the action taken and record the
results.
NEXT DAY - report your concerns to marina managem=
ent
- not just to the reception staff.

Special Offers and Discounts
A number of the local organizations =
are
keen supporters of Lagos Navigators and our fund-raising activities – and t=
hey
show that support with generous help, facilities and discounts. These are listed under the “Special Off=
ers”
Brown Button on the web site.
In addition, we have arranged discou=
nts
and special offers for our members from several of the local bars, cafés and
restaurants. These, and other acti=
vities
and events of a more temporary nature, are listed on the Home Page of our w=
eb
site, =
www.lagosnavigators.net .

Water Supplies
Tap water from the pontoon supply is perfectly safe to drink –
though it is advisable to use your own hose and flush the lines out first.<=
span
style=3D'mso-spacerun:yes'> A lot of locals buy bottled water for
drinking, primarily because the town supply can be heavily chlorinated at
times.
Weather
Forecasts
"Coastal Radi=
o Faro"
has local aerials along the Algarve coastline.
After a warning on VHF Ch 16, they use Ch 10 or 12 for weather forec=
asts
at 1000 & 1600 daily, in Portuguese and English.
Marina de
Lagos listens and works VHF Ch 9 a=
nd,
in the high summer season only, the Marina broadcasts the local Met. Office
forecast at 1000 and 1600. Synoptic
charts and Met Office forecasts are posted in the Marina office daily,
throughout the year.
“Navigat=
ors’
Net” is an
informal broadcast at 0930 on VHF Ch 9, every Monday and Friday during the
remaining 9-month winter season. T=
his
broadcast includes a comprehensive forecast.
Few of t=
he
published forecasts take account of the "Nortada<=
/span>",
which can be N or NW, F. 4 to 6, from about 1300, especially if the gradient
wind is northerly.
