Sailboat Rentals
The CBC offers both Dinghy and Keelboat rentals in our fleet of sailboats. We do not charter or rent our boats overnight. Our keelboats are stable and carry 3+ crew, while our dinghies carry 1-3 crew and require a nimble crew to keep them upright. Both are tons of fun and are an outstanding way to get on the Bay and enjoy being on the water!
All CBC sailboats rentals require completion of our Sailing 101 class, our refresher course (Sailing 150), or a check-out by our staff.
Daily Rental Rates:
Due to the time and effort required to launch both keelboats and dinghies, renters are charged by 4-hour block of time. This allows two rentals per day, or the option of renting the boat for the entire day.
- Keelboats (4 hour minimum charge)
- 4 Hours - $100
- Full Day - $180
- Dinghies (4 hour minimum charge)
- 4 Hour - $60
- Full Day - $100
Season Pass Rates:
Season passes are valid during our season of operation: May 1 - October 15th. Our sailing season passes are likely the best deal in town, and the keelboat season pass pays for itself after only 2.5 days of sailing!
- Sailboats: Dinghies Only
- Individual - $200
- Student -$150
- Family - $300
- Sailboats: Keelboats and Dinghies
- Individual - $400
- Student - $325
