Two things: 1) participate in a Fleet social paddle OR training, and 2) attend a Kayak Lending Library orientation. Check out the events page for both!

If you used the Kayak Lending Library in 2023, you will still need to attend a Kayak Lending Library orientation. We have a bit of a different setup this year, and want to make sure folks feel confident and safe taking to the water with Fleet boats and gear.

If the orientations on our calendar don’t work with your schedule, reach out to us via email and we can work something out! (mosquito@mosquitofleet.us)

The library is open during daylight hours, beginning Spring 2025

Once you have selected your kayak, be sure to grab a PFD (Personal Flotation Device), paddle, a bilge pump, a spray skirt (optional). PFDs with a whistle are legally required!

People under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. We ask that all lending library participants (adults and youth) attend an orientation. The Kayak Lending Library agreement and participation waiver must be signed by a parent or guardian.

Please refrain from taking boats away from Green Anchors. We ask that folks launch from and return directly to Green Anchors. The Fleet offers free public paddles in other locations - check out our upcoming events, or reach out if you have an idea for a paddle!

The Kayak Lending Library is first come, first serve. We ask that you always bring a buddy with you when you paddle, and feel free to paddle with a group as well! All Kayak Lending Library users must attend an orientation first. Check out the events page on our website to find an upcoming orientation, or email us at mosquito@mosquitofleet.us.
