Ski boat rental - Lake Mead, Havasu, Powell

[SwissCraft1291]

Hey JohnnyB

In fall 2019, I rented an 18ft Bayliner in Page from B&T Marine for one day for $300. This price included a donut and a wakeboard. Sure, not an ideal boat for what you want.
Plus, you have to pick up the boat yourself at the marina and put it in the water. Toni (she), the manager is very helpful and could possibly organize other boats.

Lake Powell Mastercraft used to rent NXTs but that was a few years ago. Spending $5-10K to rent an MC is usually a struggle for people who already own one.

Unless you rent directly from Wahweap or Antelope Point marinas, you must be able to launch and retrieve the boat yourself.

Not much help--but the costs of renting a boat like this have always made me consider alternatives. ($900+ per day) Have you looked at the boat-sharing sites? Kind of like Turo or AirBnB for boats. The surfboats often come with the owner driving.

If you just want a I/O boat you have much more availability at a better price. But once you toss in surf-capable it changes the metric significantly.

Planning a houseboat vacation in AZ next June. Contemplated towing a ski boat down but looking to rent instead. Anybody rent a good crossover boat....i.e. good slalom and barefoot but surfable?
