As many of you know, one of our new passions and one of many reasons we love living in Seattle, is boating. To be surrounded by water is not only beautiful but lends itself nicely to the leisure hobby of boating.

Most people we chat with love to be out on the water, but most of those people don’t necessarily want to own a boat. We have gathered information on a few different ways of getting yourself out on a boat this summer without having to own one.
Here are some options we found~
- Boat Share: There are many options for joining a boat share program including the Seattle Sailing Club, Seattle Boat Share or Boat Bound; these types of programs allow you to rent out multiple types of boats by the hour, day or weekend
- Electric Boats: The Electric Boat Company on Lake Union allows you to rent electric Duffy boats by the hour so you can cruise Lake Union in style!
- Boat Cruise: Argosy and Waterways have a nice variety of boat cruises for you to go on like their brunch cruises, dinner cruises and tours
- Center for Wooden Boats: At the CWB you can enjoy free public sails on Sundays or join the club so you can take out boats from their fleet of wooden sail or row boats
- Or go the old fashioned route and find a friend with a boat 🙂
We plan to be out on the water a lot this summer and we hope to see some of you out there as well!
