You don’t need a boating license to drive a boat in SC or NC. If you were born after January 1, 1988, you must obtain a Boater Safety Certification (link -> South Carolina Boating Safety Course: BoatUS Foundation) to operate our boats.
We’ll provide you with some guidance and direction before you start your trip. We’ll assist with the hard stuff like docking upon your return. While on the water, you’ll be expected to be aware of and adhere to the various signs including “No wake”, “Shallow Water”, etc. Other than that, using common sense and minding your speed especially when around other boats, people and/or property should help to avoid most catastrophic events.
We offer a partial refund for time loss due to rain.
In addition to the stated rental rate, you’ll be responsible for paying sales tax of 7%, credit card processing fees and fuel charge for what you use. Additional costs apply for damages and excessive cleaning needed.
Yes! We don’t want hungry boaters on the water. Just be mindful to clean up if you drop food as we’d like to keep the boat looking nice for our customers and avoid critters attracted to leftovers. For your convenience, we also provide snacks and a cooler stocked with ice and water.
Upon first arriving at the boat, it is the renter’s responsibility to inspect the boat for damages and point out any existing damage to the Boat Customer specialist prior to taking possession of the boat. The renter will be responsible for covering any damages and expenses associated with the boat being inoperable, which may or may not exceed the $500 security deposit.
This is feasible, but may take a bit more coordination and flexibility on your part. Please note the quoted boat rental price does not include the added costs of hiring a driver/captain and will be extra subject to the Captain’s pricing.
