Half Day, Full Day, Weekly or Monthly Boat Rental

A full-day rental runs on our regular schedule: pickup from 9am, and the boat is back by 5pm. Half-day rentals are available too. Call to reserve one, since they're booked by phone.

Staying longer? A weekly boat rental or a monthly boat rental works well for snowbirds and anyone spending the season here. On a multi-day rental you can keep the boat at your vacation home's dock, or leave it in our marina and come and go as you like. The marina is also the better spot when high wind is in the forecast. Many of our guests come down from the Midwest for weeks at a time, and a boat waiting at the dock makes daily trips on the water easy.

Pick Up at Our Marina or Have It Delivered

You can pick up at our Cape Coral marina. Parking is free, and you can leave your car there overnight during a multi-day rental. The walkway, ramp and floating docks are accessible. From the marina it's easy to reach the Caloosahatchee River, the bay and the Gulf.

If you're staying on the water, a captain can bring the boat to your rental's dock by water for a fee. Call for a quote. There's no trailer and no tow-and-go: the captain gives you the same walkthrough at your dock that you'd get at ours.

Before You Book

Anyone born on or after January 1, 1988 needs a Florida Boating Safety Education ID card, or an accepted alternative such as a temporary certificate, to operate a boat of 10 HP or more. Bring a photo ID. A licensed captain runs an orientation with every rental, and you'll watch a short safety video before you head down the dock. See the full rental requirements before your trip.

Renters must be at least 25 years old, and a $500 security deposit is due by credit card when you pick up your boat. Our boats are pet-friendly: pets ride for $35 per day, per pet, and must weigh less than 50 lbs.

Life jackets for adults and kids are free and included with every rental. Want beach chairs, an umbrella or fishing gear on board? You can add accessories when you book or ask at the dock.

Questions & Answers

Boat Rental Questions

More answers on our FAQ page

Still have a question? Call (239) 758-9512

How do I book a specific boat?

Open the boat you want from the grid above and use its Book button, or call us and ask for that boat by name. Each boat has its own page with photos and details, so you can see the exact boat before you book.

Are boat rental prices per person or per boat?

Rates are per boat, not per person. Where a boat shows a rate, it's the boat's rate before tax. Call for current half-day, weekly and monthly rates.

What's the difference between a pontoon, a Tritoon and a deck boat?

A pontoon rides on two tubes and has a flat, open deck. A Tritoon adds a third tube for more stability and buoyancy. A deck boat has a hull like a runabout, with open seating up front. Our pontoons stay on inside waters; each boat's page shows whether it's approved for the Gulf.
