Boat Rentals

 

Do you know how to sail and wish to sail the Southcoast, but do not want the cost of purchasing, launching/hauling, storing and maintaining a sailboat?  If so, come take advantage of CBC’s Sail Southcoast Rental Program.  Renting from CBC is both affordable and hassle free.  Become certified to sail an array of CBC boats in different wind conditions.  All sailors are required to complete a CBC rental agreement and pass a check-out sail to ensure sailors’ and the boats’ safety.  CBC’s rental fleet consists of Sonars, Catalina Capris, Picos and Vanguard 420s.  Youth & Adult classes take preference over boats.  Must be 18 years old or older to rent a boat.

Rental Season: May 1st – October 25th        Where: CBC Clarks Cove Site

Times: Weekdays: 9:00am - 8:00pm            3 Hour Rental Fee: $60

             Saturdays: 9:00am – 5:00pm            Each Additional Hour: $15

Please call at least two hours in advanced for weekday rentals and at least 48 hours in advanced for Saturday rentals.

CHECKOUT SAIL: Each renter must take a check-out sail with a CBC instructor before going out on their own.  There are different qualifications for different boats and wind conditions.  To be checked out in each condition sailors must demonstrate an understanding of rigging, departing, upwind sailing, tacking, jibing, getting out of irons, returning to a mooring and de-rigging.

Fee for checkout: $20 (waived for class participants)

Fee to upgrade qualification: $10
