Frequently asked questions

Planning Your Outing

Do I need a dock or lift at my vacation home?

To have the rental boat delivered to your vacation home, a working boat dock is required, preferably with a working boat lift; without a properly functioning dock, delivery to that address is not possible.

How does delivery and return work?

Delivery to SE / SW Cape Coral is by appointment to your vacation home; delivery to other locations may be possible by arrangement and could incur an additional fee.

Do I get a briefing?

Yes. A detailed briefing is required by Florida law and will take place shortly after delivery; it covers boat operation, local rules, a trial run if desired, and places to visit.

Do I need a boating license to rent?

Florida requires a minimum age of 25 and some boating experience plus valid ID to rent and operate motorboats of ten horsepower or greater. Anyone born on or after Jan. 1, 1988 must complete an approved boating safety course and obtain the Boating Safety Education ID card.

Is a security deposit required?

Yes. A refundable security deposit of US $2,000 is required upon delivery by credit card; it acts as an insurance deductible and will be refunded after fuel level and boat condition are checked on return.

Are the boats insured?

The fleet carries commercial insurance and Sea Tow membership.

What are the cancellation terms?

A 25% down payment is due on confirmation; full payment is due 10 days before rental. Refunds vary by timing: more than 30 days prior — 75% refund (down payment retained); less than 30 days — 50% refund; less than 10 days — no refund. In cases like hurricanes or boat damage, customers may be offered rebooking or a gift card.
