Sure, put down $20k cash and you can use it for as long as you want. As a matter of fact you don't even have to return it when you're done.

$475 per day! hahahaha May aswell go buy a boat! 2 wekend days per month all summer will run you quite a bit of dough!
But hey screw it. If he gets one or two rentals a month he may come out on the up side $$$$$$$! Not to mention someone might sink the damn thing for him.

I saw his add at the end of last summer. All I can say is, that sucks. There aren't more than one or two people that I would ever let borrow my boat. I guess when times are tough, and he's probably upside down in the boat, you have to get creative to keep from loosing it and ruining your credit.

Hah, 375hp!!!! If it gets on plane with 2 of your friends it's doing good.
There's gotta be a good story behind this bs. FNG spends that kinda coin on a new boat and then tries to rent the dog out?? ????????

I bet it puts out a killer wakeboard wake though. :)

I'm just glad I know what it looks like now so when I'm cruising down the lake and see it coming I can steer WAAAAAAY clear of it!:D Some tool with 0 experience in a "performance" boat that isn't his....Crash to follow.

So now it's not just the rental lake lice and pontoons, we have rental real boats too? Geezus...I guess the new rule is STEER CLEAR OF EVERYONE. Can you see that renter pulling that thing into Copper Canyon?

And I know for a fact I’m one of those two people….am I right Paul?
Probably going to hit Nick up this summer for a 5 day loaner.:)

I am just shocked with Kachina for even remotely having the brain-fart to put regular Mags in 30 footers. Last I had seen/heard, HOs were STANDARD in 26 and up. This guy must have cut the HP corner to get into the boat. Bad move. 425 HP and the higher torque move a 30 decently for the average boater, but 375 and less torque just can't work well.
Of course, we all want more power, even if we have a 1000 HP.

likely this is an attempt at the "puppy dog close" for sale! reeks of bad idea.

Very odd indeed. He will never see daylight trying to keep up with repairs and insurance will not pay off. I doubt he could buy or afford rental insurance on that.
But then again you can rent a H1, Viper or a Lear Jet.

Thats what i was thinking. Im going to put a picture of that thing on my dash and start looking for it on the river so i can steer clear.

LOL! well i was one of them who actually rented this, a few months before i got mine. I wanted to see what i was getting into. I personally wouldnt do it with mine, but whatever works for him. i didnt want to rent a pontoon or bayliner and this was the same price as those. AND yes a 375 sucks a$$, I should know im one of those dipsh&$ who didnt get "big blue" :confused: But its ok after this summer im scoopin up an Eticket. Well thought i share my story of "the rental" :D

Before it was closed, you could rent Hallett's up at Overton, maybe they'll move them to another marina this summer. But thats a commercial business, not a private party. I never heard of any problems, in fact a few renters I talked to were really happy. I've rented boats, leased boats, chartered boats, and his $475 per day is a good deal...
