This is not a standard rental boat. It’s a 2021 Sportsman 23’ center console—a top-of-the-line, luxury performance boat designed for experienced captains who own great boats at home and want the same caliber experience while on vacation.
If you know boats, you know Sportsman. Clean lines, powerful performance, thoughtful layout, and a smooth, confident ride. This boat is sexy, dialed-in, and exceptionally well maintained—no tired rental vibes, no shortcuts. Premium custom soft decking throughout with small children and comfort in mind. Removal center bow cushion/sunbathing platform included.
What truly sets this rental apart is the private boat lift location at the end of a quiet T-canal off Marina Drive in Holmes Beach. No marina crowds, no waiting, no fuel docks. Simply show up by car, park nearby, load your gear, and you’re off. The return is just as easy—stress-free and efficient.
PLEASE INQUIRE FOR TIME THAT BOAT WILL BE AVAILABLE AS IT IS PENDING TIDE TIMES EACH DAY INDIVIDUALLY TO GET OUT OF CANAL.
MULTI DAY AVAILABLE w/ Delivery to Vacation Rental.
