Default Boat Rentals Suggestions?

I have someone who is looking to rent my last open week at our house and he is asking about someplace to rent from for a week. Since we never had to deal with that I have no clue.

Can anyone recommend a good marina to rent from?

Thanks!

Goodhue Hawkins Navy Yard in Wolfeboro, They have a sign on the main road in front of the Wolfeboro Inn. They are maybe a mile or two down the side road. I rented a bowrider for a half day a few years ago. It wasn't cheap. Google them and see what the story is.

Default Meredith Marina

I have rented several times from Meredith Marina, their Stringray bowriders. They are very nice people and give a good introduction to not only safety but boat operation before you sail. Prices are competitive with other marinas. Here is a link to their rental site. http://www.meredithmarina.com/rentals.htm

Before we bought our boat (7 years ago) , we always rented from Shep Browns and were very pleased, if management is the same (we dealt with Sue) then I can certainly recommend them !

I whole heartedly reccommend Meredith Marine. Simply great people to deal with, all the way down to the part time dock hands.
Talk to Matt or Annie or Tracey. Great folks. Very helpful.
