Reserve Your Watercraft for the Fall Harbor Hop!

It's almost time for the Fall Harbor Hop at the Lake of the Ozarks! This year, the Fall Harbor Hop will take place on October 12th all across the lake! If you've never participated in one of the Harbor Hops put on by the CVB, you still have time to join in on the fun. This is one of the best days out on the water and if you don't own a boat, BomBay Boat Rental Co. has you covered. Read on to get all the details for the Fall Harbor Hop from your favorite boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks!


How  It Works 

Participating in the Harbor Hop is easy, and you barely even have to know how to play poker to participate! All you need to participate in this lake-wide event is have a boat, a list of the checkpoints, and ready to have a fun day on the water!

To obtain a hand, start at any of the checkpoints and pay an optional $20 to sign up. Any player can play as many hands as they would like. Stop at 6 more checkpoints, picking up another card for your poker hand at each one. Turn in your hand where you draw your seventh card. If you aren't particularly happy with the hand that you have been dealt, you will have the opportunity to buy an eighth card for $5 to increase your winning chance. Each checkpoint has its own opening time, but all cards must be turned in by 7 pm to qualify.

Tubing Safety Tips!

Fall is almost here but that doesn't mean that boating season is over just yet! The weather is still warm and fall is a perfect time of year for boating. Since there are far fewer boats out on the water, fall is an excellent time of year to go tubing! Tubing is a lot of fun for all ages.



The best way to ensure everyone has fun while they are out having fun on the water is to always keep safety top of mind. That's why today, our boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks has a few safety tips to consider when tubing. 

ALWAYS wear a life jacket.

This is the number one rule for safety when you are on any body of water. The Lake of the Ozarks has a lot of boating traffic on it in the summer. There is always a good chance of getting bounced off of the tube and separated from the boat. The PDF will keep you safely above water until you can be picked up.

Know the equipment.

Double and triple-check that the equipment you are using is in good shape. BomBay Boat Rental Company makes sure our watercraft are always in tip-top shape, but the tube is your responsibility. Know the manufacturer's recommendations for the tube you are using regarding capacity and safe speeds. Make sure that the tow line is secure before you take off. Replace it if it appears worn or frayed.

Know the rules.

Get familiar with the water safety regulations for the area that you are in. You can find out about all of Missouri's boating laws at www.boat-ed.com.

Know each rider's skill level.

Be fully aware of the expertise of each person riding the tube. It's fun to go fast, make sharp turns, and make the experience into a true thrill ride, but if the person riding is too young or inexperienced to handle it, accidents will happen.

Have a designated spotter.

At least one designated person should keep watch over the people on the tube at all times to alert the driver of any problems. The captain needs to keep their eyes and minds on driving the boat.

Watch your surroundings.

Never take off until you are positive that the rider is ready. They should have a firm grip on the line, be in a position to ride, and the line should be safely positioned. Keep a close eye on everyone else in the water around your area, both other boats and people in the water. Slow the boat when you cross a wake. Tubes hitting and bouncing off of wakes at high speeds have been known to cause back injuries.


Rent a Boat From BomBay Boat Rental! 

It's not too late to rent a boat at the Lake of the Ozarks with BomBay Boat Rental! Both our Lake of the Ozarks pontoon rentals and ski boats are great for tubing. We make boating easy with four convenient locations around the lake to rent a watercraft at the Lake of the Ozarks. Give us a call to book your rental and prepare for FUN day out on the water!

Read on to learn why boating can improve your health and happiness!


#1 - It's a great way to relieve stress.

Many studies have been done that show simply being near water is a natural way to lower your anxiety. In a survey of over 1,000 households, boating was listed in the top 3 of all stress-relieving activities. If you are in need a calming activity in your life, boating is a great hobby to take up.

#2 - It's healthy for you.

Being outdoors is great for your overall health. The fresh air is invigorating and is proven to increase a person's concentration skills and increase creativity. Being on a boat all day also provides your body with lots of healthy Vitamin D from the sun. Don't forget the sunscreen!

#3 - It can be great exercise.

While the boating itself isn't really exercised, all of the activities that are available to you while on a boat are great ways to get a workout. Swimming, skiing, tubing, and wakeboarding are all incredible forms of exercise.

#4 - It gives you time to unplug.

Our everyday lives are so full of technology in this day and age, an afternoon out on the lake is an awesome opportunity to "unplug" and simply slow down and enjoy the real world.

#5 - It's a perfect bonding opportunity.

A day on the water with your family and friends allows for a little quality time together. No distractions, and hours to spend catching up with each other.

#6 - It improves your overall quality of life.

Boating is the type of entertainment that is excellent for your mind, body, and spirit. This is a hobby that not only adds enjoyment to your own life, but everyone that you bring along to share it with you too.

#7 - It's affordable.

BomBay Boat Rental Company makes becoming an avid boater an affordable pastime. We offer many different rate plans to accommodate everyone: hourly, daily, multi-day, and weekly. Military, senior, and preferred customer discounts are available, and best of all, our waverunner and boat rental memberships allow you to get out on the water all season long.

#8 - It's convenient.

If you live in the lake area, the water is right here, begging you to enjoy it! If not, the Lake of the Ozarks is conveniently located in mid-Missouri, making it a quick trip from many other places for an exciting vacation. Once you are in the area, you can find us in three handy locations: Village Marina in Lake Ozark, Camden on the Lake in Lake Ozark, and Dog Days Bar & Grill in Osage Beach. In many cases, we'll even deliver a boat directly to the dock you are staying near.

#9 - IT'S FUN!

The biggest reason that we can give you, even though all of those reasons above are incredible, is that you are going to have an awesome time! Boating is an addictive activity that is always a blast. It's hard to find a person on a boat that's not smiling from ear to ear. Once you're out there, it's hard not to enjoy every minute of it.

7 Reasons to Go Boating this Fall!

Labor Day is behind us which means that the arrival of fall is almost here! After the busy holiday weekend is over, many people think that the boating season is over. Even though there will be significantly fewer people out on the water, fall is one of the best times to rent a boat at the Lake of the Ozarks! Check out 7 reasons you should rent a boat or jet ski at the Lake of the Ozarks this fall!


Photo Credit: FunLake.com 

#1 There's Less Traffic

Many of the people that vacation here in the Summer have kids in school or are busy with work this time of year. There are still plenty of locals and visitors to the area around, but much less than smack dab in the middle of tourist season. This gives you plenty of room out on the water to relax and not worry about too many other boats getting in your way.

#2 It's Peaceful

Another benefit of fewer boats on the water is that there is a lot less noise. The sound of multiple boat engines on the Lake can sometimes drown out all of those sweet sounds of nature. Get out there this time of year and you will truly experience the beauty of the Lake of the Ozarks without all of the noisy distractions.

#3 It's Gorgeous

We are lucky enough to live in a part of Mid-Missouri that is beautiful year-round. Here at the Lake of the Ozarks, the leaves will soon change to a rainbow of Fall colors and the entire area will look like it came straight out of a painting. Seeing this from the water elevates this experience to another level.

#4 You'll Have a Smoother Ride

With less traffic on the Lake, you will get a much smoother riding experience. Fewer boats mean fewer waves, which means a much more calm and relaxing day for you.

#5 The Fish are Biting

Yes, the fish were biting all Summer too, but you had to find a quiet spot where they weren't all scared away. This time of year it's a lot easier to find quiet spots with hungry fish wherever you go.


#6 You Can Always Find a Parking Spot

Many of the waterfront bars and restaurants at the Lake of the Ozarks stay open as long as the weather allows, and we've got a lot of beautiful days ahead of us before it's too nasty to get to these places. You will have no trouble finding an open slip to dock your boat rental and enjoy your favorite waterfront hot spot.

#7 Shorter Wait for Food and Drinks 

Once you make your way up from the dock, it is very likely that you will be seated right away, and with fewer customers, the cooks and bartenders will be able to whip up your favorites much quicker than they were able to in mid-July.

Rent a Boat From BomBay Boat Rental this Fall! 

Fall is a spectacular time of year to go boating at the Lake of the Ozarks! If you don't own a boat - no problem! BomBay Boat Rental Company is a first-class, customer service oriented boat rental and jet ski rental company brought to you by Village Marina & Yacht Club at the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks! We live by our motto, "BETTER PRODUCT, BETTER PRICES, BETTER PEOPLE"!

Be Prepared for a FUN Day Out on the Water With These Tips

When you visit the Lake of the Ozarks, there is no better way to spend to your time than being out on the water! If you don't own a boat, we make getting out on the water easy with affordable boat rentals at the Lake of the Ozarks! Of course, when you plan a day out on the water, there is some planning involved to ensure you have a fun day! Today, your favorite boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks has some tips for having a FUN day out on the water!


1. Take it Slow

When driving around docks or other boaters, taking it slow is the best option. Unlike vehicles, boats don’t have a break to quickly stop when needed. Taking your time when driving a boat on the water makes for a safer and more enjoyable outing.

2. Stay Hydrated

Be sure to bring plenty of water to keep everyone hydrated. The summer heat can quickly dehydrate the body. Staying on top of this situation is beneficial for all. The last thing anyone wants when trying to enjoy the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks is to get sick from a lack of water.

3. Pack Those Snacks

Do not forget to pack food to last for the duration of your voyage. Along with staying hydrated, having enough food is crucial for a great day on the water. Your group will be cranky if you do not have enough food for them!

4. Waterproof Bag

Although no one plans on getting their personal items wet, it does happen. Place phones, wallets, and other items in a waterproof bag or plastic bag at the least. Keeping these items in a safe location on the boat helps keep them dry as well.

5. Sunscreen

Remember to pack the sunblock to protect from getting too burnt while out on the water all day. Being around water can multiply the sun’s rays, so you are more apt to get a sunburn.



6. Dress Appropriately

Bringing clothing that can cover your skin if you do get too much sun is a good idea. Also packing sunglasses and hats to protect your face and eyes can be helpful for enjoying your boating experience.

7. Lifejacket

Making sure to have properly fitting life jackets for everyone attending is also a good idea. Nothing is more uncomfortable than wearing a lifejacket that is either too big or, even worse, too small! A properly fitting life preserver helps everyone enjoy themselves in the water.

8. Weather Check

Before setting out on an excursion on the boat, double-check the weather to make sure nothing has changed. Having your family and friends out on a boat while it is raining will be memorable, but not the most fun situation. Being on the water during a storm can be dangerous as well. Checking the weather throughout the day is also a good idea, if your device allows. Missouri weather changes frequently, so don’t be caught off guard on the water.

Have a Blast on a WaveRunner Rental!

If you've never had the opportunity to take a ride on a waverunner, you are seriously missing out! Waverunners are a blast on the water and if you're looking for a fun day, renting a waverunner is the way to go! If you've never rented a waverunner or it's been so long that you've forgotten what it's like, your favorite boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks is here to share with your three reasons we know you will LOVE riding a Waverunner!


They are Easy to Maneuver

This particular jet ski is the only watercraft of its kind that comes with an on-water brake. This means that you will be able to come to a stop up to 100 feet sooner than on other jet skis. The brake is located on the left side of the handlebar, meaning you never have to take your hands away from them. Squeezing the brake lever brings you to a stop, and squeezing it again while stopped will put the PWC in reverse. This makes docking a breeze. These extra features make it easy for even a beginner to pick up this exciting sport.

They are Easy to Get Out on the Lake

Our jet skis are lightweight, and the compact design makes it easy to get them into the water and get you on your way. Another great bonus is the fact that they are extremely fuel-efficient. That means lots of cruising around the Lake for less money spent on gas.

They are FUN!!!

You'll find this out very soon after you begin riding, but before you do, we can assure you that you will have the time of your life. They are fast and put you a little bit closer to the water than you are on a boat. You can get into smaller areas, letting you explore more. It's extra fun to rent a few with friends and race to all of the cool spots that the Lake of the Ozarks have to offer. After you jump a couple of wakes from some of the bigger boats out there, your adventurous spirit will be hooked.



Your family’s dream of great days on the water can happen TODAY. The Sea-Doo GTI 130 is easy-to-ride and boasts the most fuel-efficient engine available. The Sea-Doo GTI 130's exceptional power-to-weight ratio makes it a more nimble, playful, and effortless ride, every time. Perfect for the entire family. It's light, colorful, and it's the most fun personal watercraft on the Lake! Call BomBay Boat Rental to rent a waverunner at the Lake of the Ozarks today!

Rent or Buy a Boat? - Which is Best?

Many people dream of owning a boat! The idea of owning a boat and being able to take it out whenever you want sounds appealing to many. However, the "joy" of owning a boat comes with a lot of work and a lot of expense that you might not have thought about. When you rent a boat at the Lake of the Ozarks instead of owning one, you get to enjoy the joys of being out on the water without all the hassle and extra expense. Ask yourself these questions before committing to boat ownership.


How often will you use the boat?

One big regret of boat owners is the fact that they don't get a chance to get out on the water enough. If you know for a fact that you will be boating every single week, then this may not be a worry for you. On the other hand, if you only have a few days here and there that you can find the time to enjoy a day on the lake, it will probably be a lot cheaper to rent a boat when you decide to go out.


Also, if you don't have a lake near your home and must travel to go boating, renting will allow you to boat wherever you go without having to bring the watercraft along with you.

How much are you willing to spend?

As with any large purchase, if you have been considering buying a boat, you have probably figured out exactly how much you can afford to spend on it. The problem is that most people only think about the purchase price. Boats aren't just a monthly payment. They cost a lot of money every time that you take them out. Here are a few of the expenses you are in store for beyond the asking price.
Title, registration, & insurance: These are already taken care of when you rent a boat.
  • Maintenance: A lot can go wrong with a boat when it is out on the water, and fixing it usually doesn't come cheap. BomBay Boat Rental Co. offers the newest and best-maintained fleet on the water. You will always get a dependable boat rental from us, and if something does go wrong, we'll take care of it.
  • Storage: If you don't have a place at your home that you can keep your boat, you will need to rent a dock slip rented to keep it in. Don't forget about storage in the off-season too. It will need to be winterized and pulled out of the water in the winter. Renting a boat means that you simply drop it off when you are done and we'll take care of the storage details.

Which kind should you buy?

Different kinds of boats are good for various types of usage and passengers. Buying means you have to pick out one. Renting means that you can use a different boat every time that you go out, depending on what you have in mind for that trip.

BomBay Boat Rental Co. offers ski boats, tritoons, and jet skis for rent, and at some of our locations.


Better Product, Better Prices, and Better People at BomBay Boat Rental Co.

Our Lake of the Ozarks boat rental company gives you the newest boats to rent, and we always keep them in tip-top condition. The friendly staff that we have working with us are incredibly helpful and knowledgeable.

As far as pricing goes, we offer many different rental options: hourly, daily, multi-day, and weekly. Discounts are available for seniors, military, and preferred customers.

We also have amazing membership opportunities that will keep you out on the lake all season long. There are weekday plans, 7-day plans, and family or shared memberships. You can join strictly for waverunner rentals, or get a boat rental membership and have access to every type of boat we rent plus our jet ski rentals. Payments are only made during the 6 months that the season includes.

If you know that you'll get great use out of your boat and you have the funds to keep up with the monthly payment year-round, boat ownership may be right for you. If you'd prefer to not have to deal with any of the maintenance and hassle that goes along with boat ownership, then renting a boat at the Lake of the Ozarks is for you! For all your boat rental needs, contact BomBay Boat Rental Co!

Essential Items for a Day of Boating at the Lake!

Boating season is in full swing here at the Lake of the Ozarks! BomBay Boat Boat Rental makes getting out on the water easy with four convenient Lake of the Ozarks boat rental locations! If you haven't had to the chance to get out on the water, it's time to pack your boating bags and get out on the water! Speaking of boating bags, when you plan a day out on the water you won't want to forget any essential items for a fun time out on the water. Today, our boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks has a full list of what to pack for a day of boating, check it out!



Wide-Brimmed Hat
When the sun comes out, you'll be thankful for this little addition in your boat bag.

Insect Repellent
If you have a pulse, you're a target for those pesky bugs! Keep some insect repellent on hand to protect yourself from their bites.

Chapstick
Did you know that even your lips can be burned from the sun? Chapstick can help protect them.

Motion Sickness Pills
Even if you aren't at risk of getting sick, your passengers could be. There are many different types and styles on the market, so find what works best and keep it on hand.

Hand Sanitizer or Wipes
After handling bait, fish, or anything else you may find on your boat outing, it can be nice to have a way to clean up.

Non-Perishable Snacks
Granola bars, peanut butter crackers, and anything that won't melt in the heat of being out all day are great snacks to keep on hand for if you get hungry.

Rain Gear
The weather can change at a moments notice, so keeping a few rain ponchos in your kit will help ensure that you are prepared.

Sunglasses
Forget your favorite pair at home? Don't worry! If you put a spare in your boat bag, you'll always be able to protect your eyes.

Sunscreen
When you're out on the water, you have very few places to hide from the sun, so you'll want to have proper protection in the form of sunscreen.

Light Jacket or Sweatshirt
Because the weather is so unpredictable, you may as well be prepared for sudden coolness throughout the day. A light jacket should be just enough to keep you from freezing if a breeze comes.

Towels
Even if you aren't planning on getting wet during your boat trip - accidents (or kids with water guns ... ) happen!

Distress Signals
Visual Distress Signals are imperative. You may be able to travel on the water for years without needing one, but when you do need it, you'll be glad that you have it.

Water Bottles
You'll want to have enough water for everyone on the boat, and for the length of time that you'll be out. That can look different for every boat trip, and obviously can't fit in your bag, but you'll want to have it just in case.

Airtight Cooler
Every good boat trip needs something to keep the food cold!

Boat License
In the state of Missouri, you have to have a boating license in order to operate a boat, even if you are just renting. Make sure you either keep this with your boating supplies or in your wallet so you'll have it.

Waterproof Camera
Sure, most people just use their cell phones, but sometimes it might be nice to have a camera that is waterproof for capturing memories. Plus, a waterproof camera can be a lot easier to replace than your cell phone if it falls in the water.

Cell Phone or Marine Radio
If something happens, you'll be thankful for a way to contact someone. Just make sure that your cell phone is either in a waterproof case, or you have a waterproof bag for it.

Change of Clothes
Whether you're planning on getting wet or not, having a change of clothes in a zip lock bag can be a huge relief if you want to wear something dry halfway through the day.

First Aid Kit
Accidents happen, but that doesn't mean you can't be prepared for them!

Fishing License
You can keep this with your boating license so that you always have it when you need it. You are required to have a fishing license in Missouri, so make sure you know the rules and are following them.
