Question 1

Do I need a Boater's License or Boater's Safety Certification?

Accepted Answer

YES but ONLY if the driver of the vessel was born AFTER Jan. 1, 1982. Those operating a boat over 25 hp are required by law to pass a boater safety course and to carry a boater education card if the operator is born AFTER Jan. 1, 1982. This is Pennsylvania State Law.

If you were born BEFORE Jan. 1, 1982, you don't need a boating license.

Question 2

Do you accept out of state Boater's Licenses?

Accepted Answer

We DO accept out of state boating licenses.  We accept boating education cards that are issued by states that meet NASBLA requirements.

Question 3

What documentation do I need? What if I don't have a Boater's License?

Accepted Answer

If you arrive for your boat rental without the following items, we have the right to refuse to rent a boat to you:
 
Operators born BEFORE Jan. 1, 1982: 
> Boaters Education Card*/Proof of Passing Boaters Safety Course
> Valid State Driver's License

Operators born AFTER Jan. 1, 1982:
>Valid State Driver's License 
 
We do offer a temporary licensing course for anyone who does not meet the above requirements. This course takes about a 45 minutes and costs $125.00 per person. We highly recommend completing the full course PRIOR to the day of your rental through ilearntoboat.com as it is more in depth and covers information not covered in our temporary licensing course. Our temporary licensing course should be treated as a LAST RESORT. We will only be offering a limited amount of temporary courses per day, once we run out of slots we will not be offering it anymore. Temporary courses are on a first come, first serve basis.

Question 4

What if it rains?

Accepted Answer

For our boat rentals, unless there is a thunder and lightning storm, your reservation still stands. If you would like to do a raincheck, we can arrange that for you; however, your rescheduled date must stay within the current rental season.

If there is predicted thunder or lightning, we will contact you regarding the status of your reservation. Please be on the lookout for a call or text message from us!
