“Wow did we enjoy the Sunfish this past week!  My husband taught my son how to sail and he spent a lot  of time alone re-living his childhood! 🙂 We talked you up to some other people renting near us.  We will certainly be renting from you again – I think my son is hooked.”

You can recognize Scout by the North Sails 60th Anniversary Sunfish sail – picture sent to us by a couple renting Scout on Honeoye Lake:

For other areas of Western New York a delivery/pickup fee will be determined by mileage.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Do I have to be present when the boat is dropped off?
A: No, as long as you have provided exact instructions to your drop off location and a signed rental agreement we will deliver the boat to your location.

Q: Do you have lifejackets?
A: Two adult large lifejackets are included with the rental (seen in picture of SCOUT above)

Q: How old do my children need to be to sail alone.
A: This is a bit unclear in New York State. Some information tends to point to an age of 14, but that is for motorized boats. We spoke with a local police officer who has operated a patrol boat on Conesus Lake. He stated that there is no age restriction to sail an unmotorized sailboat or row a dinghy or canoe, but children must wear a PFD. Parents are advised to watch their children at all times due to other traffic on the Finger Lakes. Have fun – be safe.

Q: Do you have a dolly to get the boat on the beach?
A: Yes, we have dollies if needed. We are retailers for Dynamic Dollies and Racks

Q: How can I add more days to my rental?
A: Email or call to see if your boat is available for the period you would like it. If the dates are available you can be charged by PayPal or credit card over the phone.

Q: Can I tie the Sunfish to the dock overnight?
A: You are responsible for keeping the boat safe during times of non-use. Without adequate fenders to keep the boat from rubbing on the dock the Sunfish will invariably become scuffed and perhaps damaged.

Q: What if the boat becomes damaged while in use or while in my care?
A: We provide a complete list of replacement parts and prices to allow you to assess the cost for the damage for which you are responsible.

Q: How do I know what wear has been made to the Sunfish before my rental term?
A: We provide an itemized list of previous wear to the hull and other parts.
