The SailBoat Shop Skaneateles

Governor Cuomo has given the recreational marine industry in New York State an exemption from mandatory closure during this unprecedented time. As the weather warms and we start our boating season we want you to know the safety and health of our crew and customers ...comes FIRST. We have adjusted our business practices so that we can strictly adhere to social distancing and safety protocols to maintain a safe work environment. Our store will remain open for curbside pickup. We are well stocked with power and sailboat parts and accessories. You may place orders over the phone or via email. Our detail shop will continue to detail and prep boats for launch and will be sanitizing the boat after it is detailed or delivered. Our lake services such as mooring inspections, dock and hoist installs along with maintenance will continue as planned. In the event you need to meet in person with one of us it will be by appointment and we request customers to adhere to mask and social distancing guidelines and we will do the same. For all services and parts please call (315) 685-7558 leave a message we will return your call, or email us at [email protected]. Our crew is committed to making your boating season a safe one!
