Rental requirements
- A copy of your driver’s license.
- Watch our 10-minute safety video before your rental.
- Arrive 30 minutes before your rental for the pre-rental walkthrough and boat orientation.
- The renter must be 25 years or older.
- Boater certificate: We provide a one-day boater certificate.
- Damage: No cash damage deposit. You leave a card on file and sign our rental contract, which makes the renter responsible for any damage to the boat and any third-party liability.
- Life jackets: Life jackets are provided by us for all ages.
What if I’m late?
Please arrive 30 minutes before your rental start time for check-in. We may cancel the rental with no refund if the renter has not arrived 15 minutes after the start time (no-show).
Who can drive the boat?
The renter, who must be 25 or older, is the driver. An additional driver is allowed as long as they meet the same requirements: 25 or older, a copy of their driver’s license, and watching our 10-minute safety video.
Can I get a refund if I cancel?
You get a full refund if you cancel at least 48 hours before your rental start time. For example, for a Saturday 9 AM rental, cancel by Thursday 9 AM. Cancellations less than 48 hours before the start time are not refunded.
What happens if it rains?
We check the forecast and make the weather decision 4 hours before your rental. If it shows rain during your rental time, we cancel and give you a full refund.
Is fuel included in the rental price?
No. Fuel is not included in your rental price; fuel is provided at cost. The boat will be provided with a full tank. When you return, the tank will be refueled and the cost will be added to your final bill. The price per gallon may vary.
Is there a parking fee at the marina?
Yes. A parking fee of $5 per car is required every weekend (Saturday and Sunday) and on the Memorial Day, Fourth of July and Labor Day holiday weekends, paid directly to Reasors Landing Marina. Our meet-up address is the Reasors Landing Marina dock. Please follow all of the marina’s rules and guidelines.
Can I bring my dog on the boat?
Yes. Pets are allowed for a $50 pet fee per rental.
What is your drug policy?
Zero tolerance. All rentals have a zero-tolerance policy regarding illegal drug use by guests and the operator during the rental.
Can we have a party on the boat?
Not a wild party. Our boats are not for wild parties that involve excess alcohol and operating the boat under the influence of alcohol. Please do not rent from us if this is your intention.
Our boats are made for family and friends, kids and adults alike, who want to relax, have fun, swim, fish, go tubing, celebrate or unwind.
Operating a boat under the influence of alcohol is a crime. We reserve the right to cancel your reservation up until the rental time, and during the rental, if we suspect that a wild party will happen or is happening.
Is there a required safety video?
Yes. We require all our renters to watch the Georgia DNR 10-minute boat rental safety video. Watch our 10-minute boat safety video.

- Full refund if you cancel at least 48 hours before your rental starts. Weather: we decide 4 hours before; if rain is forecast during your rental, we cancel and refund you in full.
