Reservation and credit card fees: a credit card deposit of 20% is required to reserve watercraft. The balance will be due at the time of rental. There is no surcharge on the 20% credit card deposit. However, if you choose to use a credit card to pay the balance there will be a 3% fee. Cash is accepted.

 Cancellation fees: Note: deposits are non-refundable.​​
 No shows and cancellations occuring after the scheduled start time will result in an additional 30% charge to your credit card (50% fee when coupled with the deposit).
 Cancellations occuring within 24 hours of the scheduled start time will result in a loss of your 20% deposit.
 Cancellations occuring within 5 days of the scheduled start time will result in a 10% fee. The remainder of your deposit will be available for a future rental.
 Cancellations occuring outside the 5 day window may be reused at a later date. If you need to cancel please do so by responding to the confirmation email you were sent.​​

 Weather Policy:
 Please do not call prior to day of rental to discuss weather as it changes constantly. If you are concerned, it is advisable to check the radar over Claytor Lake prior to making the drive. If at the time of your rental (poor forecasts not considered) the weather is such that the average boater would not go out, we will not charge a fee. Please note that cool, overcast days, light rain, or spotty forecasts are not sufficient reason to cancel without being charged. PLEASE DO NOT RESERVE IF THIS IS AN ISSUE.

 Boating License:
 Do I need a boating license to rent a boat? Answer: No. An exception is made with the completion of a dockside safety checklist. We provide the driver(s) with this prior to the rental.
 We encourage all people to take a boating safety class.  Click me to view class schedules!

 Age Requirement:
 Renter/Operator of motorized boats must be at least 25 years old for groups of 6 or more,  21 years old if group size is 5 or less, and possess a Valid Driver's License. All drivers (maximum 3 per watercraft)  must be present at time of rental for dockside orientation. This is state law and each driver will be given a temporary operator's license.
