Self-Serve

My family has spent 4 generations operating gas stations. Growing up, I could be found slinging hot dogs and hamburgers for customer's while their cars were washed, much like Chicago Sailing's Tuesday Night BBQs. The stations that we operate are all self-service and I recently found myself on the dock referencing 'self-service' for Chicago Sailing.

Chicago Sailing is also a self-service operation. When you have rented a boat with us, we expect you to treat it as if you owned it for that 2 or 3 hour period. Your assistance allows us to keep our costs low, allowing us to maintain low rental rates.

So gas that motor up yourself, keep your eye on the weather and above all stay away from danger - including rocks!
