Sarah NationsBluffton, SC“I just wanted to say what a wonderful experience we had with Jay and Matt. We rented the Bentley 2400 Pontoon for the weekend for my husbands birthday. The line of communication was exceptional. Had the boat to our dock earlier than anticipated which we loved. Will be renting from them for all of our upcoming trips. Could not ask for a better company to work with.”

J. WadeCincinnati, OH“We just spent a week on beautiful Lake Keowee. Rented the Bentley 243 Cruise Tri-toon from Tri-County. The boat was awesome! Spent the week making wonderful memories with our kids and 8 grandchildren as they tubed and learned to ski! Jay was great to work with. He made the rental process so easy. And excellent communication with both Jay and James about delivery/pickup of the boat. Thanks for making our boating experience so special!”
James HeardGreer, SC“This is the 4th year of the last 6 years that weve rented Jays Sweetwater 25 pontoon boat for a week at Lake Jocassee. We rent a villa at Devils Fork State Park and our party of 10 always have a BLAST with Jays boat, Big Bertha, and knee board. Jay and James, his delivery driver, are first class folks men of their word who always go above and beyond to make sure everything is working and delivered on time and completely what we agreed to. His well-equipped boat is always clean and runs well and our four grandchildren ages 10-16 consider it our boat. We will always rent from Tri-County why take a chance when we have such a happy history with Jay??”
Scott PittmanTX-NY-CO“Our family met up at Lake Keowee for a summer vacation. Thank you for helping to make it a wonderful time. We had a blast with the boat rental. Everything was in excellent condition and the communication and ease of renting was exceptional. Best in class experience. Thanks!”
Edward BrownEden, NY“We had a fantastic experience renting from Jay and his crew. Jay's recommendation to up size to the sweet water 24' pontoon boat was perfect for our large group. Delivery and pickup of the boat by Matt went seamlessly and he was a pleasure to deal with. As this was our first time on Lake Keowee, his suggestion for the go to places on the lake was invaluable. Even when we had a battery issues they responded and took care of us very quickly. The water toys, life jackets and boat were all in excellent condition and Jay checked in during the week to make sure everything was going well. The hand basket of honey, jams, and pamphlets were very much appreciated. This is a class operation that takes costumer service very seriously. Would highly recommend renting from Jay and his group at Tri-County Boat Rental!!!”
Bob MontagueJohn’s Island, SC“The pontoon boat was perfect and the water toys gave our group many hours of fun and memories. The support from tri - county was exceptional. Nice to know they cared about making our vacation perfect!”
Hope CarmichaelRaleigh, NC“What a fantastic experience Jay and his team provided! Rented a larger pontoon for lake house stay for our daughters college graduation, and we had hours of fun cruising and tubing throughout the week. They couldnt have been more helpful or organized - just a smooth as silk process! Thanks for making me look like super-mom, Jay!”
S. YoungMyrtle Beach, SC“We have rented several boats from Tri-County Boat Rental while vacationing at Lake Keowee and would highly recommend them. Jay has always been extremely helpful to us with making recommendations on which boat would be best for our family. He is a great communicator every step of the way. The boats we have rented have been in great shape, reliable and clean. We would definitely rent from Jay and Tri County Boat Rental again!”
Ryan GibbonsIreland“Was a pleasure to work with Leroy and James. Boat was absolutely grand and my family had a fantastic time on lake Hartwell. They were always punctual - ready for us by the time we arrived. We will definitely use them again! Thanks for making our vacation memorable.”
Kurt and Dorothy DuffyBelleair, FL“Our family vacationed at Lake Keowee for the first time this summer. Rather than have a boat hauled up from Florida up to S.C, we opted to rent. Aftersome research we fortunately decided on Tri-County. Jay and his crew were top notch throughout our stay - friendly, helpful and professonal. We look forward to using them many times in the future. . . .”
Jason HippleSumter, SC“The folks at Tri-County Boat Rentals are top notch! We had a two-day rental of a Hurricane deck boat with some water toys. When we had an issue with our ski tube, these guys had us taken care of within an hour! I would highly recommend this company for your rental needs. I have a feeling we will be back next year and will definitely use them again! Thanks for making our vacation memorable.”
Carol NicholsonMilwaukee, WI Area“I could not have asked for a better experience. The boat was clean and included everything necessary for 5 days of boating fun on Lake Hartwell. They were on time and extremely accommodating. If you need to rent a boat this is the place to do it. Thank you Jay. You will hear from us again.”
Robert VromanColorado“Jay and his staff provided an amazing rental experience. Communication before and after the rental was clear, accurate, and very informative. There were no surprises and everything went just as expected. Delivery and pickup at Lake Hartwell was very easy with a great orientation process. Everything was well documented and things could not have been easier. The ability to have the boat delivered to a ramp very near our rental house was great, as opposed to having to rent from an on lake marina that was a good distance away. I highly recommend Tri-County boat rental, and as this will likely become an annual family get together for us we will use them again for our boat rental needs. Thanks Jay and Payne (delivery and pick up driver) for a great experience.”
James HeardGreer, SC“We've just finished our 3rd family week at Lake Jocassee (previous 2018 & 2019) and it's been fantastic! Each time we rented Jay's 24ft Sweetwater Pontoon & water toys (Big Bertha, knee board... and this year youth skis!) which has been the perfect size for our group of 5 adults and 4 growing children now age 13 to 8. His boat is fully-equipped, always delivered clean, and is well-maintained, as are his toys and safety equipment. Jay and his team do a great job and are SINCERE in fulfilling their mission statement and it has shown in ALL of our interactions with them over the years. Thank you Jay for delivering on every promise... your commitment to client satisfaction has contributed so much to my family's happy memories of these special weeks together!”
Karena M.Tallahassee, FL“Great service and delivery to Hartwell Ga during our vacation on the Lake. Tri County provided our large group with 2 boats and made delivery and pick up a breeze!!! They also gave us the cutest welcome basket full of local jams/honey with brochures and material of things to do in the area. Their staff was professional and very accommodating and communication with them was easy and fast. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! We had a wonderful time in Lake Hartwell and on the water every day!!”
Bryan K.Atlanta“Excellent experience- highly recommend! We used Jay's team again in 2020 after not visiting the lake for a few years and were very happy. Jay is very upfront about all the logistics, costs, and amenities you get. His drivers are friendly, flexible, and professional. This is about as easy as it gets to rent a boat!”
Tom AshbaughMount Pleasant/Charleston, SC“We rented a boat from Jay and Tri-County in August and cant say enough good things about our experience. Jay is super meticulous and communicates throughout the process. Our reserved boat encountered mechanical problems before we got there and he reached out in advance to work out an acceptable replacement. We selected an alternate and he bent over backwards to make sure we were happy - over delivering and exceeding our expectations. Stuff happens but the true test of customer service is measured when things go wrong. Jay met the test and we all came out ahead. You cant do better than Tri-County Boat Rentals in our opinion.”
Robin KautzLake City, FL“We were very pleased in every way with our two days rental with Tri-County. Jay was very helpful and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed for a great time on the lake; life vests, water toys, etc. Tri-County Boat Rental will definitely be the company we call next time we are in that area to rent a boat.”
Chrystal and Michael CherryWalhalla, SC“We rented the Sun Tracker Pontoon for a weekend trip to Jocassee. Absolutely, hands down one of the best rental experiences we have ever had. Jay and William made the whole process so simple and they were so friendly and professional. Definitely recommend them for all of your boating, watercraft, & lake toy needs. ”
Tonya MooreSwoope, VA“We rented a Hurricane Fun Deck for a week on Lake Jocassee. Very nice boat and excellent service. Can't wait to come back next year. I would definitely recommend Tri County Boat Rentals”.
Dan L.Ft. Thomas, KY“Just a quick thank you to all the wonderful people we came in contact with from Tri-State boat rental had a great time, rented a boat for 6 days everything was seamless went off without a hitch will be back next year!”
James DellSouthport, NC“Great experience renting a boat for 5 days. Very professional, friendly and honest staff. Always punctual and available if any problems arise. Highly recommend.”
Dick WallaceWatkinsville, GA“Just rented a Hurricane 201 from Jay-- superb boat and superb service. Family had a fun time on Lake Hartwell--we hope to be able to return next year! 5 star for sure—"
Lynne GaritoSouth Carolina“I was looking for a boat to rent when my children and grandchildren came for a visit. We live close to the lakes so we were not saying on the lake and didn't have access to a boat slip to house the boat. While talking to Jay, was extremely helpful. I was only looking for a one to two day rental, his place does three or more on all major holidays. After talking with Jay he referred me to several other places to call that would service my needs at this time. I would go back to this place to rent a boat if I was staying on the lake and wanted a multiple day rental.”
James HardGreer, SC“Two weeks ago, my wife and I hosted our sons and families (including 4 grandkids 6 -11) for a week at a Villa at Devil's Fork S.P. on Lake Jocassee. I rented Tri-County's "Sweetwater 2486 Tuscany 25' Pontoon" for the week, and we had a blast! We never had any problems with the boat or motor but I did have a glitch (the screen went dark) with the boat's sophisticated GPS/depth finder (probably operator error!) and called Jay for help. He very patiently hung with me as he walked me through the steps to get it functional again and it was up and running within a few hours of my call for help. This was the 2nd year in a row we'd rented that boat from Jay for a week at Lake Jocasee and I have been very pleased with the equipment, water toys, and service his company provided both times.. our family once again had a blast!By the way, we no longer have a vehicle to pull a trailer but for a small extra, Jay will deliver and pick up the boat to the Villa ramp (or wherever you are) and provide gas cans and a siphon to re-fuel during the week.”

Doug JohnsonLandrum, SC“What a great day on Lake Keowee. Taylor met us at the ramp right on time, did a complete explanation of everything, and we were off for a day of fun. The boat was clean and had plenty of room to store stuff and provide comfortable seating for six of us. The kids had a blast getting towed around on the tube float! Wish I could have captured some of the ejection seat moments...so fun to watch. Thanks Jan and Taylor for a great day. Well be back soon.”
Tim W.Pensacola“We just finished renting deck boat for a week. It was absolutely fantastic, Both Jay and Luke provided5 Star Service,”- Tim W., 7/29/19
ChaseAtlanta“Great experience! The communication was fantastic. Boat was in great shape and we had a wonderful experience on Lake Hartwell.”
Ron BoshawBluffton, SC“Awesome experience. Boat delivered clean and ready to go. Wave board, skis and tube. Kids (and adults) had a blast. Lake Glenville NC would not have been as great of experience without Jay, his team at Tri County and of course the Hurricane deck boat. Thanks Tri County!!”
KristyAnderson“Thank you for the very beautiful and clean boat. You all were so very nice and helpful with all the questions I had. I will definitely come to you guys again and rent.”

Joy F.Atlanta“I have rented boats from Jay twice now, and both experiences were top notch. The boats are in excellent condition, and the customer service could not be better. I highly recommend renting boats from Jay and Tri County!”
Jim BassfordMelbourne Beach, FL“We recently rented a boat for the week from Jay and Tri-County rentals. We were extremely please with the service, integrity and professionalism from Jay and his team. They helped us get the right boat, brought it right to us and picked it up with no hassle. They even let us switch out a set of skis for no charge.
I left South Carolina very pleased with our experience and it got better when we got back. During the trip my nephew had lost a family necklace and we assumed it was left in our rental house. We were worried it might be lost for good, but it turns out it was on the boat. Jay contacted me to let us know he found it and shipped it to us. In this day and age, you don't always see that kind of honesty in businesses. I greatly appreciate Jay and his team, and next time we are in SC, we will definitely rent from them!”
Jim HeardGreenville, SC“I rented Tr-County's Sweetwater 2486 Pontoon for my family vacation at Lake Jocassee the week of July 4th. We had 5 adults and 4 children between 5 and 10 y/o and we had a blast. We rented a villa a Devil's Fork SP. All of my dealings with Jay and his driver, Don, were first-rate from the initial reservation through their pick-up of the boat at the end of the week. The boat was in great shape, ran well, and they provided everything including lifevests, "toys", and gas cans so we could refuel during the week (they delivered and picked up the boat so we didn't need a tow vehicle.) I highly recommend Tri-County and will definitely use them when we do this again in the future.”
Mark LoveNewnan, GA“Great Customer Service and Support. We rented a 201 Hurricane Deck Boat the week of July 4th 2018. From the initial contact Jay and his team were great on response, communication, and overall customer service. We arranged to pick up the boat at a location near our rental home. James delivered the boat on-time with everything ready to start having fun. We had a problem with the boat's transmission right before July 4th, but Tri-County Boat Rental in cooperation with the mechanic (Jimmy) worked long into the night to have our boat back for the July 4th. Jay provided updates during the issue and immediately refunded our money for time lost on the water. Definitely planning to rent from Tri-County in the future.”
Steve and Donna Ball-MetcalfAsheville, NC“5 Plus Stars on Lake Hartwell Jay and Company were professional from the Word Go!!! We chose Tri-County Boat Rental in part from the Customer Reviews; which led to the 1st phone call. After initial contact; there was no doubt that we were dealing with a man that knew his business inside and out. It was one of the simplest processes as far as paperwork went which is something that you do not want to spend a lot time on when you are on vacation. Basically Jay works from the business point of view of Trust & Integrity. Boat and Equipment were in good condition and instructions are precise and clear. He was in contact with us reliably thru-out the week making sure that everything was up to par. His special gift of 'Welcome' truly made us feel at home in upstate Georgia. One of his finest resources is in his employment of Luke. A resilient individual and totally upstanding guy!! His personal knowledge and familiarity of Lake Hartwell was an added bonus. A Special Thank You Luke to you and your wife for your noble dedication and unparalleled service to our Country! Thanks Again Jay. Donna and Steve”
Patrick MetzCumming, GA“5 stars for Jay and the team and Tri County boat rental. They were very professional and detailed in arranging our rental and helping us to select the correct boat for our large family for a week on Lake Keowee. They were available and prompt in returning all calls and answering questions. They were professional in all interactions especially the confirmation call before we came to our vacation home. We will be renting again from Tri-county.”
Matthew BlackstonAnderson"5 Star" For the past 10 years my family has used tri county boat rental. Best boat rental service in the upstate.”
Wanda WattSouth Carolina“Want to give a big shout out to Jay and his staff at Tri County boat rental For a much needed week on lake keowee. Jay was so professional It was very refreshing to get exactly what you expect from a company The boat look new, everything was just spot on. We will definitely use them again. Soon I hopeThanks again”
Wendy AaronsonFt. Lauderdale, FL“I'm so excited! I just booked our 3rd year ski boat with Jay and Tri-County. We vacation on Lake Glenville, NC every summer and boating is something all my kids love! This is the nicest/most professional company to work with and they make renting so easy as they bring the boat to you. I think the prices are unbeatable and the quality of the boats is superb! If anything needs fixing they are out to you in a flash! They also provide us with fun water toys like wake boards and tubes! The adorable welcome basket was such a nice touch!’
Marina M.Inman, SC/www.CoverQuest.com“Our business recently rented a boat from Tri-County Boat Rental. I cannot say enough good things about this company and how pleasant and professional they were to deal with. Jay accommodated all of our requests and was extremely thorough, confirming dates, times and specifics, keeping us reassured every step of the way. All of the boats are in very good condition and were very well maintained. We are so happy to have found a local boat rental company that is such a joy to work with!”
Luke NugentConnecticut“Hi Jay,
Thank you for helping us make a memorable vacation with my family. I really appreciate your willingness to work with us between the weather that rolled into town. My kids loved skiing and tubing on Lake Keowee. We look forward to seeing you again and renting another boat from Tri-County the next time we're down visiting my parents. Thanks again to you and your team.”

R. S.Colorado“Jay's service was stellar he and his crew went above and beyond with their pickup on the day of our flight. It was a pleasure renting from them and the equipment was in excellent condition. We had alot of fun playing on the water. Thank you for everything it made for a perfect vacation.”
Aaron B.South Carolnia“Jay- Thanks for providing a service that played a large part in making a special anniversary weekend for my folks! Sorry about the bimini cover lapse, hope that didn't cause you stress worrying about the overall care of your boat. I treated it like it was my own (no beaching, no bumping docks, no high revving,.etc...).
Pete was great to work with and was flexible on return time as he had promised. I mentioned the top and that we did wrap it after I looked it over for any tear or loosened stitching, he didn't inspect at that time, but hope that you agree that there was no damage. It was a pleasure working with you, I left your brochures in the rental house that we used for the weekend and will mention Tri-county in our review on VRBO.”
Capt. JohnFlorida“Boats and services have been top notch. Jay and his staff were very professional and customer service orientated. They were absolutely great.”
Tom S.South Carolina“Jay has been great to work with - always responsive and good with communication. The boat was great - lots of fun for our family getaway. Would highly recommend - and plan on renting from again next year.”
Michael and Dianne CornPickens, SC“Thank you for the wonderful experience of renting the pontoon today! The gentleman who delivered and picked up was very helpful and kind! We spent the day with our daughter and grandsons in a relaxing atmosphere on the water. We appreciate the great service and the pontoon very much!”
S. YoungSouth Carolina“We had a great time on the Pontoon Boat we rented for our week at Lake Keowee! This was the first time to this area and Jay was great helping us choose the boat that would fit our family and we appreciated all the options of add-ons we were able to use during our rental! We would recommend this company to everyone! Thank you Jay and staff!
Some Of Our Previous Comments
Jim B.Dallas, TX“Recently we rented 2 boats from Jay at Tri-County Boat. The Bentley Tri-Toon and Sea Ray Deck Boat for the week (a little pricey compared to other rental company's but well worth it) both boats looked great and performed perfectly. Large family reunion on Lake Keowee. Not only was Jay a delight to work with, he and his team had all the details worked out perfectly. Boats were great as was their service. Tri-County Boat is now our go-to boat rental company. Thank you Tri-County "Jay" from the "B" family, see you next year.”
Carol Moye204 Morgan Ct, Greer, SC 29650“Jay has been a delight to work with. Went out of his way to make sure that we had the correct boat for our needs and worked with our changing schedule. Will definitely use again and highly recommend. Thank You Again.”
Southern TideAlaska“We had a great experience with Jay and his crew. We used one of their boats for a shoot we did on Jocassee. They were extremely helpful with everything we needed. Highly recommend. Thank you!”
Mike HirschWashington“Very pleased with the experience with Tri County. Boat was clean and well maintained. Very professional staff and easy to get hold of if necessary. Made the rental experience an enjoyable and friendly one. Five stars.”
Michael ReingruberDallas, TX“Jay, just wanted to let you know the boat was great - it actually exceeded all of our expectations for the week. I can't thank you enough for all your help (and Clarks) getting the boat to us at Lake James. It made the week and my wife really appreciated the basket, we ate all of the jam before the week was out.”
Richard LaneFlorida“Jay, thank you for making my vacation a reality. The process of picking up and returning the boats was simple, yet professional and your team was accommodating and very friendly. The boats were in great shape, super clean, and ran very well. If I"m ever in need of a rental again in the area you serve, you"ll be the only one I call. Oh, and several folks I met on the lake were quite impressed with your boats.. and I made sure to tell them where I got them.”
Amanda LeighIllinois“I just wanted to let y'all know you're a lifesaver. I recently made a reservation with Lake Keowee Marina but the morning I was supposed to have the rental reserved for I called and they said they didn't have a reservation for me which turned me towards calling you guys. Jay was very respectful on the phone and explained everything in detail. The morning of our reservation we met Mark and went over everything in detail. Y'all really saved the day and we appreciated doing business with you guys. We will be reserving again with y'all this year. Thanks again for being so respectful and detail oriented.”

Dr. Don CrawSouth Carolina“Had a Great time this week. Service and boat was outstanding. Special thanks for making our unique situation a positive one.”
Tracy AdkinsGreenville, SC 29607“This past weekend we rented the Bayliner Capri 2050, along with a set of skis, wakeboard, and tube. I could not imagine having a better experience! Jay was very kind, personable, and informative. He patiently answered all my questions in descriptive detail and gave us the suggestions to meet at Lake Keowee. He spent the time to thoroughly explain to me small details about the park, lake, boat, and payment options.
We met Clay at the boating dock in Mile Creek park. We arrived 20 minutes early and was pleased to see that he was already there waiting for us. Clay was very knowledgable about the lake and showed us the islands and other points of interest. The boat was very clean and well equipped, plus the water toys seemed to be brand new. We even had the option of 2 tow ropes! When the day came to an end it was nice to see Clay waiting at the boating dock for us! I highly recommend Tri-County and would definitely use them again!”
Thank you for such a great experience,Tracy and Germain

Rand Valentin150 Banyan Bay Dr. St. Petersburg, FL 33705“We rented from Jay in mid August and had a GREAT experience. Beginning with my first phone call to arrange the rental. Jay was warm and friendly. I quickly felt that I was dealing with a friend, not just a company. We had a couple of unique requests that Jay was quick to find ways to accommodate. And since we were staying at the south end of Lake Keowee, Jay had the boat delivered there.
Bill made the delivery right on time and was also wonderful to deal with. The Crest pontoon boat was very clean and well equipped, and Bill made the hand-over simple. A second name became a friendly face! As we were about to head off, Bill also handed us a basket for my wife of local home made jams and honey, along with brochures of local area attractions. We later found out Jay's wife puts this together. Thank you so much for adding that touch of southern hospitality!
The boat ran perfectly the entire week. We had no need to call him, but he called us to make sure everything was going fine. We brought it back to the drop off point and Bill was again waiting for us, right on time. "Checkin" was smooth and simple and in no time we were on our way to the next part of our great adventure in Upcountry SC.
I have rented boats from Maine to Texas and many points in between, and Jay and Tri-County is definitely one of the best I have ever dealt with. They provide great service with southern hospitality. I would highly recommend that if you ever are thinking about renting a boat in northwest SC, put Tri-County boat rentals at the top of your list.”

Hope to see you again,Capt. Rand and Donna
Samantha YoungPeori, ILSubject: Thank You!Message: “Jay, I just wanted to take a moment to say thanks for a wonderful day on the water Monday! The boat was perfect, Rusty was terrific, and the day was wonderful. Rusty was really helpful in not only explaining the boat, but also in telling us about Lake Keowee and the spots we didn't want to miss while on the lake. We look forward to renting from you again!!”

“Tri-County is THE place to rent your boat. This is our second time renting with Jay and his boats (and service) made both vacations. This year (August 2014) we rented the Crest Ski Pontoon for a week on Lake Keeowee. Very nice, well kept boat and equipment. Rusty delivered the boat on schedule and showed us all the operational details (Thanks Rusty!). We had several questions during the week and both Jay and Rusty were quickly available when we needed assistance. I highly recommend Tri-County!”

Norman and Janet HillisFlorida“Hi Jay,
We really enjoyed the Crest pontoon boat rental. Your service and attention to detail were greatly appreciated. Delivery to Lake Glenville was on time and the boat was in excellent condition including the furnishings, life jackets, tubing equipment, radio and depth finder. The addition of a cutoff switch for the battery was an excellent addition and saved us from the battery drain that electronic gear can cause when left on. We have rented from you for several years and find the service always excellent. Hopefully we will be back next year with all the family ? All 6 adults and 5 children. You operate a GREAT rental service and you can quote us!”
Best regards,Norman, Janet and Family

Keith ShoosterPennsylvania“Everything from booking to delivery to pick up went smoothly. Jay is one of the good guys when it comes to delivering what he promised. I would recommend Tri-County as the go to boat rental place in South Carolina. The fun deck boat we rented was an awesome boat for the family. Thanks to Jay for helping make our trip to Lake Keowee a great experience.”
Amanda Shooster38 Country Village Way, Media, PA 19063“My family and I rented a fun deck for a week while staying on Lake Keowee and were highly impressed with the service we received. The company was prompt, responsive, and made our rental as easy as possible. Before our vacation, we inquired about fish finder on the boat and Jay immediately guaranteed us that he would make sure our boat was equipped with one. He was able to provide all of the extras that we were looking for such as water skis and a knee board. Jay contacted us several times throughout the week to check up on us and luckily we had nothing bad to report. Both the delivery and pick up were on time and easy. This company was great in every aspect. Highly recommended! It is worth every penny.”
Bryan KindlandAlaska“This was our second year using Tri county boat rental. Last year we rented a great deck boat and this summer we rented a very fun bow rider. The service and communication were excellent. We needed a company that could drop off and pick up a boat for us both times. The Tri county team was friendly, responsive, on time, and did everything they could to make sure we enjoyed our time on the boat. I highly recommend Tri county and will definitely use them again.”Bryan
Neal WestbrocAlaska“Had an awesome time over the 4th of July. The service was beyond our expectations. So thankful to find a great boat rental service, Will most certainly use these guys again!”Tom and Katie Davenport
Larry BrunzlickWisconsin“Great service! We rented a pontoon boat over the long Easter weekend. All of our questions were answered regarding operation of the boat and help would have only been only a phone call away if we needed it. But we didn't. Jay even checked in with us to make sure the boat was working well. The delivery and picked of the boat was convenient, prompt and ahead of time. I think an employee is expected to wait rather than make a customer wait. I would definitely rent again. It is so nice on a multi-day rental to keep the boat over night and not have to turn it in at 5 pm. Evening is a nice time to cruise around.”
