As a rule, guests are not allowed to operate our boats. This includes paddle-boards, kayaks, motorized and rowing craft.
You may bring a guest with you under the following exceptions:
- Passenger in a row boat
If you are a a certified rower, you may bring a guest out as a passenger at any time. The guest should still sign the Dolphin Club guest waiver and pay the day use fee. - In a Multi-seat Boat (with approval)
Guests should generally not row/paddle the boats. However, exceptions can be made for experienced rowers or paddlers to join a certified rower in a multi-seat boat (double rowboats/kayaks, quad rowboats). This exception provides allowance for you to take out visitors from out-of-town, friends who have prior rowing experience, or prospective members interested in rowing. It’s not available as a recurring privilege for the guest. Please seek approval from the Boat Captain in advance. The guest will also need to sign the Dolphin Club guest waiver and pay the day use fee.
For permission to take a guest out rowing in a multi-seat boat, please email our Boat Captain
