Boat rentals available at Rice RV


Last year, we explored the idea of renting boats too, but ran into a snag with insurance rates.  We could get lower rates if we rented to a select group (like a boat club) of people who had passed safety tests.  We did not have time to pursue this much last year, but we are going to try again this year.  We have to be very selective about renting the boats.  Driving an RV is similar to driving a car, so most RV renters do just fine (except when pulling long RV's out of gas stations...).  We have to screen potential boat renters more carefully because boat driving and marine safety/courtesy rules are so unique.  The potential liability is much greater with boats, as a boating accident can cause much greater personal and property damage.  Our boat choices include an Air Nautique wakeboard boat and a Centurion wakeboard/ski boat.
