- We Deliver 2.5 Hour and 3.5 Hour Rentals currently to the curb by the dock across the footbridge from Drake Park (at Pageant Park).
We have your gear loaded onto wheels that easily roll across to the dock and will bring the wheels back to you for pickup to take the work out of hitting the river!
The dock is below the Whitewater Park and on Mirror Pond.
- For Self Transporting options we will be within five minutes of the river downtown and coordinate by text for loading your gear. Most likely we will load you at our driveup loading station at 2115 NE Division Street.
