    My guess would be none. Also wonder if he's licensed to hold himself out there as a captain?

    No good will come from this. The guy is probably trying to afford the boat with this making money venture. We all know boats are expensive, insurance is expensive and they need lots of maintenance. No soft sandy bottom or shoreline here.

    What do jet ski renters do? They run at full throttle all the time!

    What will the renter of this boat do? Kill or be killed!

    In the short time that this thread has been here, the 800.00 daily rate on the website has become a 130.00 hourly rate for morning or afternoon, and a 110.00 hourly rate for "all-day."

    It looks like they are still working things out. Oddly, they don't mention insurance and all those other buzzkill items like minimum age, ID verification and the magic word: deposit.

    There was a 29' for rent at the old Blue Lagoon Hotel about ten years ago. Don't know how often they rented it, but it sank at the dock.........twice.

    I met the owner when he bought the boat a year or two ago. If memory serves, it has a blue motor in it.

    I've never seen a boat builder have a ladder above a drive. And I can't see the trim switches you are referring to
