Bareboat Sailing From Kingston
Your Boat. Your Adventure.
Set sail from Kingston and explore Lake Ontario at your own pace.
Cruise east into the Thousand Islands, head west toward Prince Edward County,
or create an adventure entirely your own.
Our bareboat charters give experienced sailors the freedom to take the helm,
choose the destination and make the journey theirs.
What is a Bareboat Charter?
A bareboat charter puts you in command. Unlike a skippered charter, you rent the entire sailboat and become the skipper for the duration of your trip, with no hired captain or crew onboard.
It gives experienced sailors the freedom to choose their own route, set their own pace and explore Lake Ontario on their own terms.
Skipper requirements: The designated skipper must have appropriate sailing experience and complete our skipper approval process. Proof of competency is also required, such as a Canadian Pleasure Craft Operator Card (PCOC) or an accepted equivalent for international guests.
