Members with an active membership and the appropriate wind rating are allowed to reserve boats. If you are Ensign Sailing, reserving a sailboat is encouraged. There are plenty of 420s and Lasers, so a reservation is not needed. Ensigns are rarely all checked out during the day on weekdays, 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM, but may all be in use on evenings & weekends. All Ensigns are reservable. If a reserved boat becomes free because of a no-show or a member ending their sail early, that boat will be available on a first-come, first-served basis until the next reservation. If you have questions about reservations for a specific day give the boathouse a call at (612-822-8328). Reservations are made through our Member Portal on the Equipment Reservation Calendar.
