First, this website was created and is maintained by fellow Pelican Owners. It is completely free to confirmed registered owners.  You will not be asked to pay to create your profile or to access other information.  For privacy reasons, many of the areas of this website are password protected, meaning that only registered, logged-in members can access them. For this reason, you will need to create your individual profile in order to access them. If you have not already done so, join the site and create your own personal Profile.   First, read the Terms Of Use. Then, let’s get started.
 
There are several short steps to join. This should only take a few minutes.
  • Click on the Owner Profiles link on the top bar.  Find your name (they're alphabetical by last name) and click on it. Click the link to join the site. If your name is not on the Owner Profiles page, it can be added after your identity and Pelican Owner information has been verified. Please click Contact Us at the bottom of the list to ask to be added.
