Rent ‘Sweet N’ Salty‘ Our 6-person Carolina Skiff 198DLV for a few hours, a full day, several days, or a whole week!
Lake – River – Springs – Coastline
This is a really good boat to get off into your fishing or scalloping zone, with many amenities you just don’t see on a typical rental boat. Families also rent our “Sweet N’ Salty” to get in and around the shallower spots of the Nature Coast of Florida to swim, snorkel, view nature and wildlife, and to dive their favorite shipwreck or underwater structure.
Time slots available from 4 hours or a full day (up to 10 hours) (Just be back before dark.) We also rent for multiple days as long as you have a rented or owned slip. Insurance does not allow mooring.
Amenities?
Let’s see… Where do we start?
It has a 24v MinnKota Trolling Motor with GPS Virtual Anchoring. We keep good, hot lithium batteries for heavy use trolling all day. It’s almost like cheating when using the Lowrance Elite FS9 Chartplotter. We have plenty of fishing and scalloping waypoints already stored, but if you have your own, feel free to type in the coordinates! It has Sidescan, Downscan, and traditional color sonar with numerous color palettes to choose from. Plenty of preset split-screen views so you can go right to work fishing instead of fine-tuning the plotter.
The power comes from a Yamaha 90hp 4-stroke fitted with the Hydrofoil, and we also have the skeg-mounted guard to reduce damage to the propeller.
This boat requires a little more experience to operate than a pontoon boat. So if you don’t have experience operating a V or Semi-V Bottom boat, the pontoon may be a better option.
We have an inflatable platform available as an add-on for $25 and you keep it for the duration of the rental. Once the boat is anchored, it ties to the side of the boat. It allows your party to spread out, lay out, or use it as a swim platform to make the best out of the day! (Subject to availability. Call or text after booking to request it.) $25 will be collected at the conclusion of the trip.
All operators must have a valid government issued ID.
USCG requires all operators born after January 1, 1988 to possess a Boater Safety Course Certificate before operating a vessel on Florida waterways. But it’s Free!
