Route Schematic

Route schematic

A simple, flexible sequence: launch, cruise the coastal waters off Myrtle Beach, and stop to fish or anchor as desired.

  1. Launch and orientation

    Briefing and boat check before departure, then a short launch into the waters off Myrtle Beach to start your rental period.

  2. Open‑water cruising

    Set your course and cruise the coastal waters — a flexible stretch of time for sightseeing, sunning or transit between target spots.

  3. Anchor for fishing or lounging

    Pause to fish or drop anchor and swim or relax; if you plan to fish, make sure you have the required license ahead of time.

Renters must follow operator guidance and local regulations — you must have at least one 26‑year‑old adult on the boat at all times to rent, and the primary renter must be 26+ with a state‑issued ID or passport; operators may alter routes or deny operation for safety or regulatory reasons.

What the day feels like

What the trip feels like

You set the course for a half‑ or full‑day on the waters off Myrtle Beach: a short launch, a stretch of open cruising, and then whatever the group chooses — fishing, drifting and anchoring or slow coastal sightseeing. The operator ensures you know how to handle the craft and its onboard systems before you go, leaving the day to be whatever pace you prefer.

90-hp power with practical onboard kit

THE BOAT

90-hp power with practical onboard kit

Each Hurricane deck boat is powered by a 90 hp 4‑stroke Suzuki engine and comes fitted with hydraulic steering, a Bluetooth stereo, an onboard map, anchors and a canopy — the baseline tools for comfortable, self‑piloted days on the water.

Flexible rental lengths and room for nine

THE DAY

Flexible rental lengths and room for nine

Rent by the hour — options include 1, 2, 3, 4 and 8‑hour blocks — and bring up to nine people on board, so the same boat fits quick outings and longer half‑ or full‑day excursions.

Safety kit and hands‑on orientation

THE SUPPORT

Safety kit and hands‑on orientation

All boats are supplied with life jackets and meet U.S. Coast Guard safety requirements; operators brief and instruct renters on boat operation before departure so you leave confident and compliant.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this rental suits — and who it doesn’t.

1
Groups of friendsIdeal for small groups up to nine who want to pilot their own outing; capacity supports social days afloat.
2
Families with older adultsSuitable provided the rental age rules are met — at least one 26‑year‑old adult must be on board at all times and the renter must be 26+ with ID.
3
AnglersA practical choice for casual fishing trips on a self‑driven boat, though anglers must secure any required fishing license before departure.
