Try out our spiffy Beneteau First 21.0's, Catalina 22 (fixed keel), Hunter 25.5 & Pearson 26, or Columbia 32.  Beneteaus have no engines; all others do.  All boats available for half and full day rentals, and those with engines are available for overnights and weekends, too.

ASA or US Sailing certification, or equivalent experience, required.  Level of certification needed depends on the boat, length of rental, and weather.  There is a one-time rental checkout for new customers which costs $90, pass or fail.  This is to evaluate your competency and chart reading ability.  Certification, foreign sailing license, or US Coast Guard license does not waive the checkout.

We offer Captained charters as well.  Our Captains are also certified Sailing Instructors.
