Book Bareboat Rentals and Classes Online

You can operate our 21′ to 27′ rental boats on their own, given that the operator meets knowledge and experience requirements.  Our 21′-27′ bareboat rentals are available for experienced boaters to enjoy on their own, without a captain.  If you don’t have prior boating experience but you want to rent a 21′-27′ bareboat on your own, our training classes cover the hands on skills to operate a boat and reserve a rental.
