Yarrow Bay Marina has served Lake Washington boaters out of Kirkland since 1967, with new facilities built in 2008, offering a full range of services including moorage, fuel, boat repair, parts and accessories, and boat rentals. Its home port on Lake Washington gives renters and slip holders direct access to Lake Union and Portage Bay as well.

For those looking to rent rather than own, the marina offers Regal and Cobalt runabouts, ranging from 19 to 21 feet and seating 6-7 passengers, along with a 24-foot SunChaser pontoon boat seating up to 10-12 passengers. Renters must be 25 or older, and a $150 deposit holds a reservation, refundable with at least 24 hours’ notice. Every boat comes equipped with life jackets, a life cushion, a fire extinguisher, flares, a paddle, fenders, and lines, and a one-day boating license is granted on-site with a valid driver’s license.

Rates run by the hour and vary by boat: the Regal Runabout starts at $165/hour for 2-3 hours or $890 total for a full 8-hour day, the Cobalt S200 starts at $180/hour or $940 for 8 hours, the Cobalt S220 starts at $186/hour or $995 for 8 hours, and the Pontoon Boat starts at $205/hour or $1,020 for 8 hours, with fuel charged separately at the end of the rental. Inner tube rentals are also available at a flat $40. A $1,500 damage deposit applies via credit card, and boats returned late incur a $200/hour fee before closing or $500/hour after the shop closes.

Beyond rentals, the marina’s expert mechanics are factory trained and authorized by MerCruiser, Mercury Outboard, Force, and Volvo Penta, giving boat owners a trusted repair option alongside covered and open moorage slips and a premium unleaded fuel dock.

For boaters on Lake Washington looking for moorage, fuel, repair services, or a rental runabout or pontoon for the day, Yarrow Bay Marina offers a well-established, full-service marina in the heart of Kirkland.
