Default Florida Keys Boat Rental

Hey Guys

I am heading to the Keys this summer and the extended family wants to rent a boat. Anyone have any luck renting a boat for multiple days down by the Key West area?

Any help or information is really appreciated

Thanks

I was looking at them, seemed to be nicer boat selection than alot of other places.

Were the nav units well equipped with maps?

Thanks

Good, thanks.

Was a tough winter and last summer we weren't very efficient, but I have high hopes for this summer to start paying off some of the debt. We have made it through our first year so I think we are doing better then most new food establishments.... time will tell.

My fiancé got me a 20' w ff/gps we got it right by where we stayed in the villas of hawks Kay in duck key- really nice area and you can almost cast from your patio- fish there 24-7
And only a short 10-15 miles to productive offshore grounds

Don't forget your Boater Safety Card. Florida requires proof of course too.

Sorry for the late response... I missed your post the first time.

On the boat that I rented, which was a 25' Cobia at the time, it did have a small Garmin and it did have a map with a bunch of track lines to help you find your way around.
