As of January 1, 2011, OutriggerSports USA has merged its operations into DragonSports USA.

DragonSports owns two six-person outrigger canoes stored within the RiverPlace Moorage for use by DSUSA members. When not being used for open practice, the canoes are available for rent by crews at the rate of $10 per session (typically one and a half hours). All paddlers must be DSUSA members and have signed a waiver.

Crew reservations may be made by DSUSA-certified steers by emailing the DSUSA Scheduler.
