Sailboats

Our small single and double-occupancy sailboats (420s, Lazers, and Optis) are available for rent to those with sailing experience only, since they are a non-skippered rental. All safety equipment is provided, including personal flotation devices, paddle, bailer and sound signal.

Cost

$30.00 per hour to a maximum of $90.00 per day. Payment by debit or credit card only

Day cruiser

The “Jane Mary” stands as a tribute, a 22-foot sloop-rigged Catalina Daycruiser that comfortably accommodates up to six adults. This vessel bears the name of a local family member whose legacy is intertwined with the history of the reservoir. When you charter the “Jane Mary,” you’re not just embarking on a sailing journey with an experienced skipper — you’re also honouring the memory of Jane Mary, a farmer’s kin whose life was claimed by these waters. Her story is a poignant reminder of the critical importance of water safety.
 
Rental includes a skipper (staff member) and all safety equipment, including personal flotation devices, paddles, bailer, heaving line, and sound signal device.

Cost

Cost: $100.00 for the first hour and $75.00/hour thereafter. Payment by debit or credit card only.
