First boat rental in Sarasota
A first rental is a normal fleet booking plus the safety briefing. There is no beginner boat with a secret rate.
Most first-time groups take a pontoon: 10 passengers or 12, $450 for 4 hours or $550 for 8 hours. The person who rents is 25 or older. You meet at 1059 North Tamiami Trail for a safety briefing. Life jackets are included.
Fuel is a $200 deposit. After the trip the boat is refueled and the unused deposit comes back. If nobody in the group wants to drive, the captained outing is $1,200, not the pontoon price. Read the safety guide before you come. It covers the club’s waiver and boater-education notes.
