We had a great weekend on the water . We rented for two days, snorkeling and fishing. Rick's a great guy who told us where to go out in the back country of the Florida Keys Lake's. It's at the top of my list to do again. Their located right in town and the best...
Definitely come see Rick if you're looking to rent a boat for the day! Rick was awesome, very laid back and easy going. He gave us great directions to get to all the cool spots, even gave us his cell number to call him for ideas on different places to go while we were out on the water. The deck boat we rented was awesome! It had a gps on it which made it really nice for navigating shallower waters, especially when we got to the sand bar to anchor for the day. Great fuel efficient motor too, you won't be spending a fortune on gas when you get back to the dock. I definitely recommend this place! You won't be sorry!
If you want to rent a good boat at a great price, you need to see Rick at Florida Keys Boat Rentals. He and his dog Lola are the nicest and friendliest. We were a large group and he accommodated all of us, showed us how to operate the boat, even took us out to a sandbar and let's us enjoy. I was unfamiliar with boating since I haven't done so in a few years, but he made it simple and made me feel comfortable, like I've done it a million times before. If you want easy, friendly, convenient boat rentals in Key West, go see Rick.
First was told I needed to be at least 25 to rent a boat and had to complete the boater safety course beforehand. No problem as I am 25 and grew up around boats in south fl so the safety course would be no issue. So they took my info/card number and made a reservation. Awesome I think, One less thing to worry about on our trip and I was glad to be renting from them because I see nothing but good reviews. Until I received a call ten minutes later asking how many times I had been on a boat in the past year. Well I have not been on a boat in the past year because I work and do not own a boat. I was then told I could not rent a boat because the owner requires you to have operated a boat 20 times in the past year. What?! If I could get out on a boat 20 times a year not only would I consider myself extremely lucky to have so much free time and money, I would just own my own boat at that point. RIDICULOUS REQUIREMENT! . A boat rental 20 times a year at approx $350 per outing would run me $7000.00 for a year. Where does the owner expect an average person to pay for something like that. If your own a boat rental company and someone meets your insurance requirement but not your crazy personal requirements, then maybe you should not rent out your precious boats (that should be covered by insurance anyway). I'm sure they are awesome people, most every review is positive, but my experience was a horrible one.
If your looking to rent a boat, look no further. Hands down the BEST boat rental service in key west. We scheduled to have a boat rented for our group, but I was the only one in the group that had boating experience (very little) and the owner recommended that I not rent this trip because of my little experience. Instead, he offered to take us out to an island on his own boat and let me drive to and from. Ended up getting some great boat lessons along the way. We all had a really great day and made us feel really welcome. We were also joined by the owner's dog (Lola) who was a really sweet, well tempered lab. I know for a fact that we could not have gotten this kind of service anywhere else. Thank you for a great time Rick! We will be back for sure.
