Premium new and pre-owned yachts on one of North America's greatest cruising waters. Authorized Pursuit, Cobalt, and Comitti dealer based in Alexandria Bay, NY.
The St. Lawrence River runs nearly 750 miles from the eastern end of Lake Ontario to the Atlantic Ocean — but for boaters, the magic happens in the Thousand Islands stretch, and that's where Summerland Yacht Sales has called home for over 45 years. Our showroom on Route 12 in Alexandria Bay sits on the doorstep of arguably the finest freshwater cruising waters in North America.
We've spent four decades putting the right vessels in the hands of St. Lawrence boaters. Whether you're cruising the protected channels around the Thousand Islands, running open water toward Lake Ontario, or planning longer trips into Canadian waters, we know what works on this river — and we stock our inventory accordingly.
Among the cleanest, deepest river systems in North America. No salt corrosion. No marine growth issues. Pristine water that protects your investment year after year.
Cross between New York, Ontario, and Quebec all in a single afternoon. Few rivers offer this kind of cross-border cruising variety.
The main shipping channel runs 60-250 feet deep. You can comfortably operate yachts up to 50+ feet without ever worrying about draft.
Castles, cliffs, lighthouses, and 1,800+ islands. National Geographic-tier cruising every weekend.
Boats on the St. Lawrence need to handle a unique combination of conditions: open-water chop near Lake Ontario, narrow protected channels through the islands, freighter wakes that can roll across the main channel, and the occasional summer storm. The boats that thrive here share a few characteristics — solid hull design, well-engineered freshwater cooling systems, comfortable cruising amenities, and enough range to make a full day on the water effortless.
That's exactly the inventory we curate. Our Pursuit lineup brings offshore-capable engineering to the river. Cobalt's deep-V designs handle freighter wake like no other runabout in the industry. Our Comitti vessels deliver European craftsmanship matched to the river's elegance. And our pre-owned selection is carefully sourced from St. Lawrence and Great Lakes owners who know how to take care of a boat.
Our clients come from across the river system — Cape Vincent, Clayton, Alexandria Bay, Wellesley Island, Ogdensburg, Massena, and the Canadian shoreline towns of Gananoque, Brockville, and Kingston. With over 45 years on the river, we know the marinas, we know the surveyors, and we know the right boat for your specific use case.
