Renting a boat with a skipper

With Click&Boat you have the option to rent a boat with or without a captain, depending on if you have the required boat licenses/qualifications.

For those who have a boat license, bareboat rentals are available. However, if you prefer to sit back and relax during your charter experience then you should choose to rent with a captain. This is also a great option for those who are planning get-togethers, celebrations, and parties on board! Our captains are local experts who know the area best!

What boat should I rent?

With Click&Boat, you have access to full-day and half-day rentals depending on what you are looking for. For example, pontoon boats are great if you’re looking to have a family sailing trip or if you want to throw a party with friends. Motorboats on the other hand are ideal for water sports while luxury yacht charters are perfect for those looking for that little extra touch of wow on their next boat trip.

When is the best time to go?

Prime boating time in Sag Harbor is during the warm summer months! Head out on a boat rental in April or October if you choose, but remember a jacket. We highly recommend renting a boat from May to August, when the air (and ocean) temperatures are warm. Nothing quite beats a dip in the water from the deck of your boat to cool off!

Since the summer months tend to be the Hamptons’ peak tourism season, we also recommend that you book your Sag Harbor boat rental in advance with Click&Boat so that you are sure to have your dream boat!
