A rare opportunity to rent a brand new, (currently 24 hours on engine) fully loaded "unsinkable legend" in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta! *
What you're renting: The safest small fishing / recreational boat available. Boston Whalers are unsinkable and this one is over-equipped with safety gear and modern electronics to get you home safely, including a Standard Horizon GPS/AIS integrated radio with a distress button that will tell rescuers exactly where you are.
It also includes a Raymarine Dragonfly 7 GPS/Sonar/Fishfinder/Chartplotter to find the fish and find your way home. If that weren't enough a two speaker JBL stereo system with bluetooth and USB media inputs so you can listen to your own music. How do I top that off? A GPS integrated MinnKota Riptide saltwater / freshwater trolling motor with ipilot. Push the anchor button on the ipilot remote and the motor will keep you stationary over your favorite fishing hole without an anchor.
If you're a real techie with a fishing itch, download free apps from Raymarine and MinnKota on to your smartphone or tablet and you can seriously expand the capabilities of these systems with the ability to see the fishfinder \ chartplotter output on your phone or tablet -or- scroll a shoreline and have the Riptide trolling motor follow that path.
This boat is for discerning fishing enthusiasts that desires the safety of a Boston Whaler with all of the high-end fishing bells and whistles and not just a bare bones boat rental. (right next door to me you can rent a triumph for the same price without any of this gear and without my meticulous care)

Half day rentals sunrise to noon or 1 PM until 1/2 hr before sunset. (although the start of a boatbound day is 8AM, we're up at 5)
