About

Gig Harbor, Washington, is home to Harborview Marina, a private condominium marina supporting individual boat slips in the Puget Sound region. The covered marina gives slip owners exclusive-use rights and access to common-area elements. Based in the heart of Gig Harbor, it provides a dedicated home port for boaters who keep their vessels close to local waters.

Following a 2005 fire, the property completed a multiyear cleanup and rebuild that added a more fire-resistant design, uniform slip sizes, a pump out station, and AV infrastructure. Its condominium structure distinguishes the operation through individual ownership rather than solely private property control. Boaters seeking a marina near Gig Harbor can contact Harborview Marina directly with questions about slips and general marina matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

How old do you have to be to rent a boat in Washington?

For a rented motor-driven boat or vessel with 15 horsepower or more, Washington law allows unsupervised operation from age 12 if the operator carries the required Boater Education Card; a personal watercraft cannot be rented to anyone under 16. An operator age 12 or older without a required card must be accompanied and under the direct supervision of a person age 16 or older who possesses a card. The card requirement generally begins at 12 for operators born after January 1, 1955. Personal watercraft operators must be at least 14. These rules are in RCW 79A.60.640 and 79A.60.190. Rental operators may set higher minimums, so confirm when booking.

Do you need a boating license in Washington?

Yes, Washington requires many recreational operators to carry a Boater Education Card rather than a traditional boating license. Operators age 12 or older who were born after January 1, 1955, must carry it when operating a vessel with a motor of 15 horsepower or more. This includes personal watercraft meeting that threshold. The minimum operator age is 12 for these motorboats and 14 for personal watercraft; personal watercraft cannot be rented to anyone under 16.

Rental customers may instead complete and carry the State Parks approved safety checklist. Common exemptions cover people born before January 1, 1955, qualifying short term visitors and recent boat purchasers. A course completion certificate serves as a temporary card for 60 days. Washington State Parks administers the program.

What are the best places to go boating in Washington?

The best boating areas in Washington are Puget Sound, Willapa Bay, Lake Roosevelt, the Columbia River, and the Lake Washington corridor. Puget Sound provides interconnected saltwater passages, islands, sheltered estuaries, and bays across western Washington, while Willapa Bay offers a protected estuary on the southwest Pacific coast. Inland, Lake Roosevelt is a large impounded section of the upper Columbia, and the Columbia River provides long routes through Eastern Washington toward the coast. Around Seattle, Lake Washington is part of the Lakes-to-Locks route through connected urban waterways, coves, sloughs, and natural areas.
