Good to know

Do I need a boating license to rent a boat at a marina?

Requirements depend on state laws, but most US states require drivers born after a specific cutoff date to hold a NASBLA-approved safety certificate. Marinas frequently administer a 15-minute temporary online or printed course for $10 to $15 prior to departure. Drivers must be at least 21 or 25 years old and present a valid photo ID.

How much does it cost to rent a pontoon or powerboat?

Half-day rentals (4 hours) typically range from $250 to $500, while full-day rentals (8 hours) run between $400 and $900 depending on location and vessel size. Fuel is usually charged separately at marina pump prices upon return, adding $40 to $120 to the total bill. Peak summer weekends often require full-day minimum bookings.

What equipment is included with a boat rental?

Rental rates include US Coast Guard-required safety gear, such as adult life jackets, throwable cushions, fire extinguishers, and anchors. Renters must bring properly fitted life jackets for children under 13, as marina stock in youth sizes is limited. Watersports gear like towable tubes or wakeboards can be rented separately for $30 to $75 per day.
