How it works

Four steps to a day on the water.

Browse, book, drive to the marina, push off. No trailer and no haul-out: the boat is already in the water.

Why renters choose AllWakes

The freedom of a boat without owning one.

No stranger in a parking lot.

Boats live at marinas, and the marina's staff check you in at the dock.

Your deposit comes back.

The security deposit is charged when you book and refunded after the trip, less any damage.

Know the terms before you pay.

Each marina sets its own cancellation terms, and you see them before you pay.

Frequently asked

Questions, before you cast off.

Do I need a boating license?

It depends on the state. In Florida, anyone born on or after January 1, 1988 needs a Boating Safety Education ID to drive most powerboats, so check your state's rules before you book. Marina staff check your driver's license at check-in.

What if I've never driven a boat?

Pontoons are the easiest powerboats to learn. Ask the marina about an orientation before your trip; its contact details are on its AllWakes page.

What's included in the price?

The boat's rate, plus any add-ons the marina offers that you choose. The security deposit is a separate charge, refunded after the trip, less any damage.

What if I damage the boat?

Your security deposit is charged when you book and refunded after the trip. If the boat comes back damaged, the marina can keep part or all of it to cover the repair, and the rest is refunded to you.
