Florida Boat Rentals — Local services in Vero Beach

Rented the 22' Deckboat - Bayliner last week. Very unimpressed with the boat- we thought we'd be renting a "nice" boat, powered by 150 Horsepower, but what we got was very run down that at full throttle would barely reach 15 miles/hr. Either it is entirely water clogged or barnacles have been growing on it... We covered approximately 20 miles in total (from the dock to just north of Wabasso and back), and it cost us $55 in gas solely because of how the engine run.. On a better boat, it would have cost $20-$25 in gas.

On another note, the guy we checked in and out with was not especially nice.. and then asked for tip.. not sure what what. When we said we wouldn't be tipping he made comments and spoke under his breath. He also left my dad's credit card information on top of the "cabinet" on the dock for the entire 4 hours... Very unsafe and unprofessional.

Please see below the pictures I took of the boat we got... The picture of the entire boat is what we thought we'd be renting, which is how it's advertised on their website... Hopefully this gives you a proper idea as to what you'd be renting/spending...

EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE!! I have known the owner Alex and his crew for a few years now and I’m just now finding the time to rent a boat from him. Now, I worked side by side with Alex and his crew on the dock behind Riverside Cafe and I have seen first hand the AMAZING customer service from Florida Boat Rentals. Not only is the customer service on point, the amount of time and effort that Alex and his crew puts into their fleet of boats is astonishing. With these boats being used by some pretty inexperienced boaters, you would NEVER be able to tell. Alex does a thorough job of cleaning and maintaining his fleet. I thought with the whole COVID thing that my family deserved a nice day on the water. Florida Boat Rentals came through with amazing prices for brand new pontoons that can fit my entire family! (We have a big family haha) Not to mention, at the time I was working on the dock alongside them, I was not familiar with boating laws and Alex pointed me in the right direction to get my card and start my boating experience as he knew I’d fall in love! Thank you Alex and crew for all...
