Looking to rent a ski boat for a day around BR area, False River or Maurepas area. Google doesn’t give many options, you guys know any rental options out there?

That seems like a risky thing to get into.. Boat rentals.

First, it's not something people are going to rent out all year. How many people are renting boats from November - March in South Louisiana? Anyone going out in the water during that time of year already has a boat.

Then during the summer months, it's not like people are going to be renting boats a lot during the week. It would take awhile to make up for the cost of the boat plus the insurance being paid on it. And not everyone can drive a boat. I doubt there are any boat rental places. Seems like a risky thing to get into.

I grew up with Rad. Haven’t seen him in a long time.

He probably doesn’t want to have anything to do with you Martini.


You’re a huge prick.

You can find an ROI that matches that of a boat. Shocked more people don’t buy one due to the appreciation alone.

I'd call Bennetts. They aren't going to let you drive their rigs but they will damn sure pull you around on whatever you want to ride for as long as you want for a price.

Go to Galva canal club in Manchac - St.john side - ask for one eyed snapper - he has a 20ft Jefferson skiff with a 355hp 454 chevy - he only drinks hot natty lites - give him a couple of cases and he might rent you anything you want.

This sounds like a concept Uber should explore. It would be nice having an experienced and sober boat driver pull you around all day. It's their boat so they know everything about it. They know where they're going. They can use it in the offseason to do whatever it is they do in the offseason.

If you don’t have an experienced driver, I would not recommend it. It’s not like renting a car..

Thunder Bayou has two boats and two jet skis that they rent out. Give them a call.
