Small Boat Storage

The Winnetka Park District offers storage racks for small boats. (All racks are currently taken, but there is a wait list for new patrons.) The racks can accommodate Sunfish sailboats, Windsurfers, Lasers, kayaks, and canoes. The fee includes a storage locker for sails and rigging equipment (only sailboats, not kayaks or canoes). Beach spots are also available for Vanguard 15 boats. (Beach spots do not include a storage space for sails and rigging.) Sorry, no Hobie spots are available at this facility. Storing your boat right at Lloyd Beach is the ultimate convenience for the recreational boater or the weekend racer.

Current rack holders will have first priority to renew their spot or to switch to a new rack. Racks not renewed by April 9, 2010 will be made available to new patrons. Application form is on page 59. To put your name on the wait list, please contact DeDe Kern at (847) 501-2040.

Please Note: In an effort to reduce paper use, the Winnetka Park District would like to build a database of patron e-mail addresses. Please include your e-mail address on your registration form and you will be informed of renewal deadlines and Lloyd beach events/ updates via e-mail!

Sail Lockers
Sail lockers are reserved for patrons who pay storage fees for a Sunfish, Laser, or similar boat that is stored on the racks north of the beach house. Lockers are not included for kayak or canoe racks. The sail lockers will be assigned to patrons as they renew their boat storage rack for the 2010 season. Patrons will be issued a specific locker number for their rigging. Any lockers that are occupied and are not on record at the Winnetka Park District main office will be emptied and the items confiscated.

Fenced-In Boat Storage
The Winnetka Park District maintains a small fenced-in storage area for boats on trailers. This area if FULL and a wait list has been formed. To be added to the wait list, please fill out the form below.

Winnetka Park District residents have priority on the wait-list over nonresidents. Any boat in this area must be 24’ feet or less from the tip of the trailer tongue to the back of the prop. Specific rules for the fencedin area are available on-line at www.winpark.org.
