A few things
worth knowing.

Visit the help center
Do I need a licence to rent a boat?

It depends on the state or country. We publish the rule for markets where we have verified it against the issuing authority, with the date we checked. For markets we have not yet verified, the listing says so, and the operator is the person to ask.

Is a captain included?

Each listing says so explicitly. Crewed charters include a professional captain, and often crew, in the listed rate. Bareboat rentals are drive-it-yourself.

What does it cost to book?

The boat price plus one flat 8% service fee, itemised in your quote before you send a request. Operators pay a separate flat 10%. Neither fee changes, and nothing new appears at checkout.

Am I charged when I request a boat?

No. A request costs nothing, the operator confirms availability first, and some will propose an adjusted price for your dates before anything is agreed.

How do multi-day charters work?

Boats with a day rate can be booked across several days, and a weekly rate applies automatically when it beats seven day-rates. The full breakdown is shown before you request.

How do I list my own boats?

Listing is free and there is no exclusivity. Add a boat yourself in a supported US location, or submit your charter website for assisted setup. You review the details before submitting for publication and approve every booking request.
