We are located in Incline Village and will launch the boat from Cave Rock, NV. Surrounding areas may be available for an extra charge. I'm sorry, but Sand Harbor is closed for 2022 for boat launches.
The boat is USCG rated for six people and is perfect for the family day on the water. I provide a wide variety of lifejackets to fit most, safety equipment and VHF Marine Radio for every rental. If you have special size request, please inquire ahead of rental or bring your own. Everyone on the boat shall be fitted with a life vest before the boat is launched. Dogs are welcome.
Rentals will automatically be cancelled on red flag warning days. High winds are unsafe for small pleasure craft and the USCG does not recommend boating on those days. 100% payout back to the renter if these or other unsafe conditions exist.
Wellcraft is a premium US boat builder with a long history of making pleasure craft. This 18' Wellcraft Elite 180 is no exception. She is the perfect boat for a lake cruise or tubing with friends/family. A tube is provided at no cost with the rental. Ice chest available at no cost upon request.
This boat is best suited for cruising, fishing, swimming, water play and tubing.
Anchor, PFD's, horns and VHF Marine Radio are all included. The hydraulic trim is automatically adjusted with a mounted hydrofoil. She has a deep V-hull for a smooth ride and comfort. A 3/4 Bimini top will keep you shaded if you wish.
Fuel is NOT included in the rental. The boat is equipped with a 30-gallon tank and will be full at rental (unless otherwise agreed upon). I will fill the boat after your rental and provide a receipt to you via Boatsetter application. If you need to get gas for the boat on a full day or multi-day rental you may use any marina on the lake. It uses 87 octane clear gas. No mixes or ethanol. Most 8 hour rentals or less typically don't use more than 30 gallons. So, don't worry about it.
The boat has a Tahoe Only inspection pass and is ready to go. Lake Tahoe is the most beautiful Alpine Lake in the United States. It has 72 miles of shoreline and is surrounded by mountains and lush forest. The only lakes larger in the US are the five Great Lakes.
Any questions? Please use the Boatsetter message system and I will try my best to answer any and all questions. Check my ratings, I pride myself on great customer service and great experience. Cell phone number will be provided after confirmed rental to ensure ease of communications on day of the rental.
If you need a captain, I am not a USCG licensed captain and cannot pilot the boat for you. I may be able to put you in touch with a captain for the day. That is not included in the rental and a deal between you and the captain.
If you just need a quick boating course I will gladly take you out for 10-15 minutes and show you how to safely operate everything. That time will not be deducted from your rental time. I want you to be comfortable with the vessel.
Enjoy the pleasure of a boat on Lake Tahoe without the ownership expense. See you at the ramp skipper.
