Does anyone know of a marina that will rent an 18' to 25' boat for the day?
I'm a life-long boater, ex-Coastie and have extensive experience in small boats (ocean and big lakes).

It's funny. I've rented small boats all over the world, but I have tried (both online and in-person) on SXM for years and have had no luck. I don't really understand why. Maybe it'll never happen.

Not unreasonably. My goal, depending on the boat, locale, etc., is $250 to $400, but considering the sxm locale and the sounds of what you got, quite reasonable. Thank you for the info.

Power boat. I've worked with sail boats and sailing yacht club for years, some as a Committee Boat Captain of a power boat, but I still prefer good old dependable engines and to go somewhere in straight lines instead of zig-zags.
