A) You must be an experienced boater willing to take full responsibility for the cost of any damaged equipment. By renting, you accept 100% responsibility for the safety of your crew and yourself.
B) If you were born after January 1, 1987, you need a boater safety certificate. Those born before this date are exempt.
C) Ideally, you should have owned or currently own a boat. If not, significant experience on the water is necessary—around 30 days is a good starting point (the Coast Guard requires 360 days for a commercial captain).
D) The Apostle Islands qualify as offshore boating. If you respect the largeness of Superior she will bless you, if you underestimate the size and distances she will show you. Going to further into the island one should stay in their comfort level and keep in mind conditions can change. If you go an hour out in calm waters it will take longer and be unenjoyable to have to return in large waves.
so far 2024 seeing $50-$175 The people who kept it smooth and slow showed how efficient these boats can be, $175 was quite a track around the islands a local professional mariner with his family showing them everything.
assume you get less than 3 miles per gallon...
Madeline Island is the easiest destination with a town and public and restaurant docks. The Apostle Islands are huge and amazing and you certainly can explore the islands. I am trying to encourage nearer islands over the further islands. Outer Islands is Strictly off limits. Devils Island is reserved for Perfect days only, and you have to show me your plan not the other way around because you understand how far offshore you are going if you do plan to go that far. If you are not sure how big this place really is I suggest Stockton Island as much more well traveled.
a) No. All boats must be returned to the trailers before dark.
a) We are fair weather boaters! 15mph Winds I offer you a chance to cancel or reschedule, I may let you go depends on direction and other variables. 20mph winds are basically an automatic cancel.
We don't cancel for light rain, but certainly storms. I have a short season I can be wishy washer about canceling willy nilly, but anything short of a good day you can safely manage a boat and we have to cancel and refund you if we cannot reschedule.
a) CB-Boats.com will provide all Coast Guard required safety equipment. Life Jackets are kept dry at the Shop and must be selected to fit and brought with. On your end always be prepared for Lake Superior to be more cool than expected. Sweaters even Winter Jackets come in handy out there even in mid summer sometimes. Food and Water are considered important survival equipment should you be delayed on the water, which is possible. Sunglasses are often necessary to see in marinas. Beyond that make sure to pack refreshments and equipment you will enjoy while exploring Chequamegon Bay and The Apostle Islands.
If you watch The Miami boat ramp youtube channel you might get why I am going to pass on this. In the future I hope to maybe offer smaller lightweight easy to launch fishing boats people who want to trailer and launch their own boat, but for year 1 CB-Boats.com will be launching all the boats for customers.
No, all participants in the rental must sign the participation waiver and depart/return with the rental.
