Pontoon Boat Rental

For our guests, we have available for your rental our 18.5 foot Sundancer pontoon boat. This boat features:

The boat is docked at a nearby marina, so it can be ready for your use within minutes.

Conditions of Use of Boat

  1. Boat is rented for a full day's use - dawn to dusk - and is to be picked up from and returned to the slip in the marina. No refunds for late starts, early returns, inclement weather (except for posted wind warnings), or cancellations of less than 48 hours notice. This gives you the flexibility to enjoy the boat without either of us looking at our watches.
  2. Boat may be rented for any day(s) of your stay, including day of departure.
  3. Renter/operator must be 21 years of age or older.
  4. Renter will receive with one full tank of gasoline.  Renter is responsible for purchasing additional gasoline for the day's usage. Please note that gasoline may not be brought into the marina or onto the dock due to marina safety regulations. The marina sells gasoline during operating hours, please check before you leave. [NOTE: we have changed this, as it is impractical to require tanks filled at the end of your usage, since the marina does not stay open late for purchasing gasoline. You will receive the boat with at least one full tank of gas, and will be responsible for purchase of gasoline for your use during the day. You will no longer be responsible for filling the tanks at the end of the day.]
