Daily Sailboat & Kayak Rentals

Take the hassle and committment of owning your own boat and consider paying an hourly fee to rent from a selection of our boats. A great option for casual sailors and an excellent opportunity to test-drive different models. Choose from 5 different sailboats within our fleet of over 20 vessels: Islander 30's, 23' Sonars, Rhodes 19's, Pixels and Sunfish. You may also choose to rent kayaks for the day. They are all available seven days a week from mid-April to October during our normal business hours. All first-time sailors are required to undergo a check-out sail to determine ability. Spinnaker gear is also available to WFC certified sailors only for an additional fee of $25.
