Rules and Regulations for Sea Isle City’s Kayak Storage Rack Facility:

  • Kayak Storage Berths will be awarded only to Sea Isle City property owners and year-round Sea Isle City residents only.

  • Only one berth will be awarded per property each year.

  • No kayaks over 100 pounds are permitted.

  • Only one (1) kayak is permitted in a berth (racks are not designed for more than one kayak per berth).

  • All kayaks must be stored upside-down in berths to avoid filling with water.

  • Each berth is numbered “1 thru 112” and each registered kayak will be given an Identification Tag with the number of its designated berth. The tag is to be mounted on the end of the kayak using that berth, with that end facing outward when stored on the berth.

  • The owner of the kayak must provide his/her own locking system to secure their kayak to the storage rack FRAME.

  • Kayaks are only to be stored at assigned berths only.  Kayaks or other equipment that are locked to the fence or stored in any other public areas will be removed and impounded by the City.

  • Only kayaks are to be stored at the kayak storage berths (no paddle boards or other water craft are permitted).

How to Obtain a Berth?

Residents and property owners wishing to use a seasonal storage berth can register in an annual lottery, which will be conducted by the City’s Recreation Office.

Each name that is drawn for a berth during the lottery will be assigned a kayak storage berth number and will also be given an identification tag with that number.  The identification tag is to be attached to the bow of the kayak being stored in that berth.

*New for 2024. There will be a $75 fee per season for kayak lottery winners. Payments can be made at www.seaislerec.recdesk.com or bring payment (cash or check) to the Recreation Office at Dealy Field. Winter hours for the office is from 9 to 4 Monday thru Friday. From Memorial Weekend to Labor Day Weekend the office is open 7 days a week from 9 to 4. NO REFUNDS.

After the lottery concludes, a numerical waiting list will be created, consisting of the names of registrants who were not awarded kayak berths.  The waiting list will be used if/when a previously assigned berth is vacated during the season.

The Yearly Lottery begins March 1 and concludes April 15.
