Seasonal cruiser rental?

ifinditfunny · 04-01-2011, 11:42 AM

Anyone know of a Marina or individual that would rent a cruiser for the season? 24-27ft. Ideally, the arrangement would include the slip.

thanks in advance,

There are a few cruisers for sale on the classified ads. At least one has been there a long time, maybe they would rent to put a few dollars in their pocket.

The only issue would be insurance, how does a boat owner protect himself in that situation. Say some third party property gets damaged, or someone gets hurt while you have the boat.

You may have to stick to professionals that already rent boats. Try the big marinas that sell used cruisers, I'd try Irwins, Silver Sands, and Shep Browns.

Day boats and pontoon boats are all I've ever heard of. Cost would be huge as the liability is huge. You can't imagine how expensive it is just to get commercial insurance just to say ferry people around the lake.
