Welcome to the Waterfront
At the new River Center!

Our Mission is to operate the finest college waterfront facility available in support of all of St. Mary's College waterfront activities.We have 24 kayaks and 8 recreational FJ sailboats available to those associated with the college to checkout daily. Recreational hours are from 1 to 6pm. The Monitor station is staffed by two student workers during those hours and is located under the stairs on the lower deck of the River Center. The new sail storage room is organized with new sail racks for your convenience. Additional sailboats are made available when we can!

Waterfront Rules;

  1. Sign in and leave your ID in the checkout box.
  2. Boats must stay within sight of the River Center.
  3. Those sailing small boats must wear life jackets.
  4. Those in kayaks must wear a life jacket or have it on board.
  5. All youngsters under the age of 18 must wear lifejackets in both sailboats and kayaks at all times.
The waterfront staff is responsible for ensuring your safety- they observe the boats, have a rescue skiff available during recreational hours, and often will make a run around the basin to check for any problems.
