BOAT STORAGE
Homosassa Boat Storage in our High and dry boat boat barn eliminates the hassle of trailering and launching at the ramp. Call an hour ahead of time to have it splashed, gassed and rinsed and and ready to go. Returning at the end of the day is as easy as tying up, removing your belongings and heading home. No ramp anxiety and no trailer mishaps.

With our boats you can go scalloping, fishing or swim with the manatee. Children and dogs are welcome on our boats and we have special life jackets for them both. We maintain 2 wheelchair capable boats and will accommodate special requirements.
Our waters are home to gentle manatees in the winter months and scallops in the summer months. The waters are shallow and easy for swimmers of all levels and ages. Enjoy the underwater world which is accessible from one of our rental boats.
Scallop season starts in July and runs through the summer with thousands of people diving for scallops–it’s one of our busiest and most-exciting times! Scalloping can be enjoyed by children and adults–if you can swim you can scallop. Read our Guide: How to Scallop Homosassa Springs.
The manatees start coming up the Homosassa River to bathe in the Springs when the outside water temperature starts to drop and the 72 degree water of the Springs is the warmest they can find. These beautiful creatures are inquisitive and often like to interact with people which gives you the opportunity to get up close and personal with them. The Springs is an easy 15 minute boat ride from the marina and you can swim with the manatee from one of our rental boats.
Fishing opportunities abound in our waters. Inshore species include redfish, snook, trout, tarpon, ladyfish, snapper, bass, jack crevalle, shark and spanish mackeral. Rent a boat from us and take an inshore fishing trip.

High and Dry Boat storage gets you on the water and where you’re going faster and easier than trailering.

For those who like to dine on the water, there are 6 waterfront restaurants within a 10 minute boat ride. Some of our customers like to pack a picnic lunch and anchor up the the Spring or a nearby island and enjoy dining on the hook.
Boat Storage Customers can purchase non-ethanol fuel from the marina. We do everything we can to minimize the inconveniences other boaters experience allowing you to enjoy the most time on your boat without headaches.
