Rental rates on the reservations page. In addition to the rental fee you will be paying for fuel, fishing tackle rented, bait and ice.
We provide the most important items you will need. That includes an onboard GPS / fish finder, VHF marine radio, EPIRB, and all US Coast Guard required safety equipment. You will also have laminated hard copy charts, a big net, gas, harpoon, ice chest, and shore dingy in your rental boat.
We provide our boats with full tanks. All you need to do is fill the tanks at the end of your rental period. What safety equipment do you provide?
Coast Guard required equipment including life jackets, throwing device, fire extinguisher and signaling devices. All boats come with a shore dinghy that could be used for flotation in an emergency. Cell phone service is available in about 50% of western Prince William Sound and as previously mentioned all boats have VHF radios which allow you to contact the Coast Guard in an emergency.
We have laminated charts. You may want to bring some of your own navigational aids, but we will provide the basics of what you need to find your way in Prince William Sound.
Each boat is equipped with a marine radio. If you will be making shore expeditions, you may want to bring your own handheld unit(s).
