Club Boat Reservations

The Club Boat may be reserved for MORNING (dawn until noon) or AFTERNOON (noon until sunset). The reservation system will show available slots at either 9am or 1pm. Please consider these labels to be placeholders for full morning (dawn-noon) or afternoon (noon-dusk) sessions. 

​The boat is automatically booked on race days. If you wish to race the boat or observe a race, you can check with that day's Race Committee. If they are not planning to use the boat as a Committee Boat, then you can email Rob or Jen and we can manually add your reservation to the calendar.
