Membership


Are you an avid kayaker? Is sculling your sport? Like the rush of beating into the wind on a sailboat? No matter what small boat you prefer, Moss Bay Rowing, Kayaking & Sailing Center has the right membership option for you. Either a quarterly or annual membership entitles you to use any of our equipment that you are trained and checked out to use. Members can enjoy the rowing equipment before, during and after hours and can use the kayaks and sail boats during hours 7 days a week. Rowing and kayaking are unlimited and you can enjoy the sail boats one hour per day. It makes a lot of sense to row, kayak, or sail at Moss Bay instead of buying your own boating equipment and struggling with storage, maintenance, and resale. Annual memberships are $360 and a quarterly costs $175. Benefits also include - bring a freind out in a double kayak for $5 and hour, take up to three friends sailing for one hour per day free, 20% discounts on Take-Away rentals, 20% discount on lessons.

Private Boat Storage

Private boat storage is also available at Moss Bay Rowing and Kayaking Center. The monthly rate for a single boat is $35 per month. A double boat's storage rate is $45 per month. There is a 6-month minimum for storage on all boats. Premium rates may be applied during May - August storage.

Boat Share

    Experienced water sport participants and newcomers to rowing, kayaking, and sailing are not only excited to learn their favorite water sport, but often a bit apprehensive about which boat to buy. Moss Bay can really help you with this purchase and storage decision in 4 important ways:
    • By selling you a great new or pre-owned boat right now that will give you the option to sell back to us.
    • By storing and insuring your boat at Moss Bay for free, and SAVING you a lot of money.
    • By letting you freely use your boat and all the different kinds of great boats at Moss Bay (free membership).
    • By offering you ongoing, complimentary skill improvement tips at Moss Bay.

    We call this our Boat Purchase and Share Plan You can buy a brand new, top of the line, single or double kayak, or a pre-owned boat that is very durable and stable.

    With this 2 year agreement, you can enjoy your own boat as well as many other boats in the fleet at Moss Bay. You can access your boat 24 hours a day, any day of the year and have free waterfront parking and restroom use. And you don't have to be inconvenienced by transporting your boat, which is the main reported reason why people don't go boating.

    As you can see in our Boat Share Agreement you are asked to "share" your boat under this plan with other boat users at Moss Bay. For this courtesy, we will insure, maintain, polish, and if necessary make repairs to your boat at no charge to you. No one is allowed to take your boat away from Lake Union (unless you purchase a plastic boat this is specifically included in our Take-Away Rental Program). Thus, your boat will experience little wear that commonly occurs from being bumped when transported or dragged ashore.

    You can elect to remove your new or pre-owned boat from the Boat Share Plan anytime after the first summer, without penalty. If you keep your boat in our fleet through the 2 year agreement, you reserve the right to sell back your boat to Moss Bay at 50% of the original purchase price, regardless of its condition. This is clearly a shared "win - win" situation for you and Moss Bay.

    Check it out! Great Buys, terrific location, guaranteed buy back. Call us right away or stop by for a visit. Evey fall Moss Bay also sells off our summer fleet outright - yours to take away and enjoy. See you soon.
