RACINE â In a move aimed at retaining slip-holders at Reefpoint Marina, the county will begin offering a mobile pump out service for boaters there, something that had not been available in the past year.
A final decision by the Racine County Board of Supervisors came at its meeting Tuesday when the board had a second reading and unanimously approved a resolution of such a service. The Finance and Human Resources Committee had previously authorized the capital purchase of one mobile pump out boat and authorized the transfer of $51,595 within the 2021 Reefpoint Marina budget.
âPump outâ means to empty sewage from sanitary waste tanks. A mobile pump out boat travels to boats on the water and pumps out from there. Otherwise, boaters have to travel to the docks.
