The Kayak Lending Library is FREE! We do welcome donations, especially from folks with financial privilege, to keep the library up and running, and the kayaks and gear in good shape for the community. Visit the Donate page on our website to make a contribution.

Participate in a Fleet paddle at Green Anchors. All of our on-water events at Green Anchors include a Kayak Lending Library orientation. Check out the events page to register!

If you used the Kayak Lending Library in 2024, 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 events 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 and a bilge pump. PFDs with a whistle are legally required!

People under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Youth paddlers must attend an event +orientation with an adult. 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! Reach out to us if you’re looking for paddle buddies that are KLL members.
