Sadler Sailing Basin

Sailboat-Only Dockage on Sandusky Bay

The Sadler Sailing Basin is Sandusky Sailing Club's sailboat-only marina that offers floating docks with water and electricity for 140 sailboats up to 40 feet in length. Sadler Sailing Basin is the only Sailboat Only Dockage on Sandusky Bay. Sadler Sailing Basin also has dry-sail space for smaller boats on trailers as well as storage for dinghies. Four hoists that can accommodate boats up to 3500 pounds and a ramp provide quick launching and take-out capability. Multi-hull boats can be accommodated either on trailers, docks, or moored from a buoy. Visiting sailboats should contact the Sandusky Sailing Club prior to arrival for dockage rates, berth assignments, and/or information.
