All,
i'm looking for recommendations for small sailboat rentals anywhere in the US, Mexico, and/or Caribbean. I typically see ads for Hobie cats, but any sort of small sailboat would be ok.
Maybe visit a recent Sunfish Worlds location, the host sailing club might have extras leftover that you can rent? Curaçao was a couple years ago and looks like an AWESOME place to vacation.
The hotels/resorts that do offer sailboats for rent these days typically have Hobies (like the Hobie Wave or Getaway). More friendly for novice sailors; harder to capsize and more comfortable for two or more. I did find a place in Curacao that (still) rents Sunfishes: Sail Adventure Curacao. Sailing a Laser out of Cabarete (Dominican Republic) requires a different skill set.
I probably should have left this one out. The Cabarete shop is for sailors to practice their Laser skills, typically with input from a coach, and race. One has to bring a sail, ropes etc. Laser Training Center - Cabarete, Dominican Republic
