What Type of Boat Should I Rent?
If you’re looking for a boat on the short-term, renting is your best option. Renting a boat is great even if you already own a boat, because it lets you try out a different type of boat. And, of course, if you don’t own a boat yet, rentals can allow you to test the waters (pun intended) and determine what type of boat you might want to own. Here are some of the types of boats that you can choose from for your rental.
Fishing Boats
Anyone who loves to go fishing, but wants more freedom to go offshore and away from the dock, will enjoy renting a fishing boat. Fishing boats can be small with flat bottoms for fishing in rivers, or they can be large with deep-V hulls that are perfect for coastal fishing. You can rent a fishing boat for a solo adventure or bring all your angling buddies on a weekend trip you won’t soon forget.
Pontoons
Spacious and easy to operate, pontoon boats are a great rental choice for families because their high walls and wide, flat decks make them safer for children. People are much less likely to fall overboard on a pontoon boat than any other type, thanks to their stability. Pontoon boats also offer you plenty of comfortable seating around the edge of the craft, and they typically offer lots of amenities, including sun decks, slides, cabins, wet bars, and kitchenettes.
Wakeboarding Boats
Got a crew of adventurous souls who want to participate in some extreme marine sports? A wakeboarding boat is the ideal rental because it comes with the features needed to tow inner tubers, wakeboarders, water skiers, wakesurfers, and others who participate in watersports. You’ll get a fast boat that can swiftly navigate around the water, with features like hydrofoil technology and ballast to generate large jumpable wakes off the stern.
Yachts
Interested in something a little fancier and more upscale? If you’re looking to truly cruise in luxury, then a yacht may be the perfect rental option. Yachts are spacious and come laden with plenty of amenities for all your guests, so if you’re looking to host a unique and elaborate birthday or anniversary party, then you should do your celebrating on a yacht.
