The boat

This Pontoon is ready for you to hit the lake this summer. This is a great boat for cruising around Lake Washington or Lake Union. Bring along some floats and enjoy Seattle's summer from onboard the perfect lake boat. It has a Bluetooth stereo and seating to comfortably fit 8 adults. Just bring along ice, drinks, towels, and floats to make your trip a memorable one. Swimming, cruising, relaxing, and champagne sunsets are what it is best suited for.



Sailgating packages available. Additional captain wages will be required and paid directly to the captain by the renter per USCG rules. Captains wages are $55/hr.





FAQ:

What are the requirements to rent this boat?

We require our renters (either you or someone in your group) to have boat handling experience or qualifications. This could look like you or your family having had a boat that you have driven and been solely responsible for, having rented a boat in the recent past, or having taken a boat handling class.



If you wish to take the boat onto Lake Washington you are also required to have a State Boater Education Card. If you just wish to stay on Lake Union previous boating experience will suffice.We do not rent to people who have little to no boating experience.



Does the boat have life jackets?

Yes, the boat has adult lifejackets on board, as well as all other required safety equipment.



Does the boat have water skis, wakeboards, or tubes?

No, the boat is not set up for watersports and they are not allowed on our rentals.



Does the boat have an anchor?

No, the boat does not have an anchor or a depth gauge.



Does the boat have a shade, cover, or bimini?

Yes, the boat has a sunshade/bimini.



Does the boat have a sound system?

Yes, the boat has speakers as well as a Bluetooth radio which also has a USB and aux outlet. The speakers are nothing to brag about. You're welcome to bring an external portable speaker.



Is there parking at the marina?

Yes. After turning into the marina, take a right at the 4-way stop. You can park between The Highliner Pub and Net Shed 4 (large warehouse looking building), just in front or the row of small/medium offices there is free 8 hour parking.



Are pets allowed?

Yes. Pets are allowed. Renters/Operators will be responsible for your pets safety. We do not have pet life jackets. Any damage caused by pets will be pulled from the security deposit. There is an extra charge for bringing a pet that is a part of the checkout process.



Is there a cooler?

Yes. Coolers are available for rent. They are a part of the check out process.



Fuel?

Renters are responsible for bringing the boat back full. Failure to refuel the boat costs a $100 charge on top of the cost of the fuel. We will point out the fuel dock options that exist on Lake Union.



We run lots of trips and multiple trips on the same boat throughout the day. Returning the boat late will incur an additional cost.



Your booking starts at the time in which the booking is reserved for. Not when you / the rest of your party arrive.



Lake Union is a wake-free zone with a speed limit of 7 knots / 8 MPH. You can tell if you are going too fast, if your overtaking other boats. This speed limit will impact your return times, so you just need to plan you trip accordingly.





Special pricing around; holidays, events, SeaFair, Sailgating, etc. The prices are dynamic based on these activities.

I have been around boats my entire life and started with Boatsetter a while back with one boat. The ability to provide people with great on-the-water experiences has led to me continue to expand the fleet and build out the team. More than happy to answer any of your questions!
