HILTON HEAD ISLAND FISHING FIELD GUIDE
A Spacious, Powered Day on Hilton Head’s Waterways: The Luxury Pontoon
A detailed guide to Shelter Cove Marina’s Luxury Pontoon rental — a roomy, well-equipped boat with seating for 12, a 150-hp Yamaha and features built for fishing, picnicking and cruising.
A Spacious, Powered Day on Hilton Head’s Waterways: The Luxury Pontoon.
On Hilton Head Island, Shelter Cove Marina’s Luxury Pontoon is built to hold a group comfortably while you move easily through the tidal creeks and estuaries. The rental pairs a 150-horsepower Yamaha with Garmin navigation, a Fusion Bluetooth stereo and a nine-foot Sunbrella for shade, making it as much a platform for an anchored picnic or a day of fishing on Bull Creek as it is a boat for relaxed cruising.
