MADISON BOATS PRIVATE BOAT STORAGE
We have two small watercraft marinas. Our downtown location, Brittingham Boats, offers on-shore racks to store canoes, kayaks and SUP's. Wingra Boats offers on-water pier storage of canoes, kayaks, SUPs, rowboats and small sailboats. It is our goal to make boat ownership enjoyable and to make getting out on the water easy. We hope you will consider us for your boats' summer home.

If this is your first year (or want a refresher) we are happy to give some tips on easiest way to get your boat in and our of the slip/rack.

You are welcome to use your boat outside our business hours (one of the main benefits). FYI park hours are 4 am to 10 pm.

You are welcome to modify your spot to protect/fit your boat (pool noodles/towels etc). If the spot needs physical alteration (too wide/too narrow,) please let one of our team members know AND send us an email so management can follow up.
