If you wish to bring a powerboat, per an agreement with a local marina, your boat can be launched, slipped at a floating dock, and the trailer stored in the boat yard during your stay. Arrangements need to be made at booking. Kayaks, bicycles, sailboats, jet skis and powerboat rentals are available through local boating centers and outdoor outfitters.
