Hoofers offers a variety of sailing packages to accommodate all of our guests. So whether you are a complete novice or have sailed on the America’s Cup racing team, we have something to offer.

The only requirement needed to participate is that you are a UW-Madison conference attendee or a member of the Wisconsin Union. Short-term introductory Union Memberships are available for purchase inside our boathouse. Go ahead and turn your conference into a vacation!

Individuals with prior sailing experience attending UW Madison conferences may be eligible to use Techs (1-2 people per boat), Badger Sloops (2-6 people), or windsurfers (1 person). This package allows you the freedom to see the lake by yourself at your own pace. A short assessment of sailing ability is required. $30 for or two people on the same craft per hour, add $5 per hour for each additional person on the same craft.
