Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Do I have to be present when the boat is dropped off?
A: No! As long as you provide clear instructions for the drop-off location and a signed rental agreement, we will deliver the boat directly to your location.
Q: Are lifejackets included?
A: Yes! Each rental comes with two adult large lifejackets.
Q: How old do my children need to be to sail alone?
A: New York State has no specific age requirement for sailing unmotorized boats. Children of any age may sail, but they must wear a PFD at all times. Parents should supervise their children carefully due to other water traffic. Safety first — have fun!
Q: Do you provide a dolly for beach launch?
A: Yes! We provide Dynamic Dollies for easy launching and retrieval. (We are authorized retailers for Dynamic Dollies and Racks.) The boat must be stored on its dolly — never moored in the water long-term or dragged onto the beach.
Q: How can I extend my rental?
A: Email or call us to check availability for additional days. If the boat is available, payment can be made securely via Square.
Q: What if the boat is damaged during my rental?
A: We provide a complete list of replacement parts and costs so you can easily assess any damage for which you may be responsible.
Q: How can I see the Sunfish’s condition before my rental?
A: We provide an itemized list of existing wear and minor marks on the hull and other parts so you know exactly what to expect before your rental begins.
Q: Can anyone rent a Sunfish from Shoreline?
A: Rentals are subject to two requirements:
- Your location must have a beach or suitable area for safe storage; boats cannot be moored long-term in the water.
- Renters must have basic sailing experience. While learning to sail is a wonderful goal, our Sunfish are not suitable for first-time sailors. For safety reasons, we reserve the right to decline rentals if a renter does not demonstrate sufficient proficiency.
