OUR MOTORBOAT SUPPORT POLICY: Motorboat support is available to transport camping gear and equipment from our MARSHALL site to your campsite at Marshall Beach or Tomales Beach and back. This service makes camping with sit-on-tops, which do not carry as much gear, more doable. It also makes it possible to set up a comfortable base camp with items which are not readily tranportable by kayak, such as tables, chairs, coolers, firewood etc. The fee for this round-trip service is $25 per person, to our rental customers. NO MINIMUM CHARGE ON WEEKENDS. The minimum charge for this service MID-WEEK is $150 per boatload. For beach campsites north of Tomales Beach, a per boatload surcharge will apply: Pelican Point to Pita Beach (N of White's Gulch), add $50 per round trip; Pita Beach to Avalis Beach, add $100 per round trip. NOTE: One motorboat load usually accomodates 6 campers. One load in volume is approximately 4'w x6.5'l x2.5'h, 65 cu ft, (about a small pickup truck load), and can be up to 600 lbs. in weight. BWK reserves the right to charge extra for loads exceeding these guidelines. HAPPY CAMPING!
