Boating Safety Tips for Your Boat Rental

Summer is finally upon us, and the only GREAT way to enjoy it is by getting out on the water for a fun weekend! Yet, if you don't have a boat, how are you going to cruise across the water's surface? By renting a boat at the Lake of the Ozarks, of course! At BomBay Boat Rental, we provide the best watercraft rental at the Lake of the Ozarks, and we want YOU to have an amazing time out on the lake. There are a few things you can do ahead of time, though, to make sure your trip is not only fun but safe as well. Here are a few safety tips to keep in mind when you rent your boat.


Be Prepared

You can never be over-prepared when planning for your boating adventure. If you have no experience with the boat you'll be piloting, you can watch some online videos to get up to speed on the technology that is aboard the craft. You also want to make sure you are familiar with the Lake of the Ozarks before getting out on the water. We have a HUGE lake with many twists and turns, with many coves to chill out in and main channels to cruise, if you aren't familiar with the lake, it can be easy to get turned around. Make sure you have maps either saved to your phone or bring along paper copies.

Choose Your Boat Carefully

By choosing a boat you are familiar with operating, you can save yourself some hardship. We have two boats to choose from, a ski boat and a tritoon. Both are easy to operate, but if you are more familiar with one over the other, that may be an easy way to make your choice.

Know the Rules of the Water

In order to keep everyone safe, the water patrol is always out to make sure that everyone is following the rules. Don't be caught off guard by not knowing what the rules are when you're out on the water. Different states have different rules, so even if you are aware of the rules in your home state, they could be different than the ones we have here. A quick Google search should be able to help you learn what you can and cannot do while out on the water and help avoid unnecessary penalties to ruin your outing.


Check the Insurance and File a Float Plan

When renting a boat from a company, you need to make sure that you are aware of the insurance involved. It will provide peace of mind knowing that you are covered and protected. You should also file a float plan to let others know where you'll be going. You can include information about where you are departing from and where you'll be, and keep emergency contacts close by.

3 GREAT Reasons to Rent a Boat

It's a summer pastime. Getting out on the water, enjoying time with friends and family, soaking up the sun, and trying your hand at new watersports. Of course, if you don't own a boat - that can prove a bit challenging. That's where BomBay Boat Rental Company comes in! Our boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks is the BEST place to get your boat for any amount of time. Here are three GREAT reasons to rent a boat this summer!


1. Best Bang for Your Buck

Buying a boat can cost a lot of money upfront, but to make matters worse - if you don't use the boat a LOT you may come out on the short end. Because of this, BomBay Boat Rental has created a membership plan that helps you to come out on top from the start. To make it even better, with our membership plan, you only pay for the months out of the year that you USE your boat.

Weekday plan, 7-day plan, or 
Family or Shared plan

1-time membership fee

Only 6 months of payments

advanced reservation

2. Rent NEW Boats

One of the biggest scares for renting a boat is that you could get a 'lemon' but that's not the case with BomBay Boat Rental. We ONLY rent boats that are new. This year we are featuring boats from 2017 - and when your rental is delivered to you, we are sure you will be 100% satisfied with the quality. We have a Cobalt 220 Ski Boat, a Sylvan Mirage Tritoon, and two SeaDoo Jet Skis to choose from. If you're ready to hit the water in a boat that is top of the line, and not more than a year old - we can help!


3. NO Maintenance

Finally, the best reasons to rent a boat is that you don't have to do any of the maintenance. Your boat is always ready, all of the time. You can head out on the water and know that all of the annual maintenance has been finished, the filters have all been changed, and there aren't any malfunctions that haven't been corrected.


It's Time to Plan Your Summer

It's never too late to make your summer plans - if you want to enjoy your summer days out on the water, BomBay Boat Rental wants to help you. Our Lake of the Ozarks boat rental company is committed to providing you, the customer with the best rental fleet on the water.

4 Ways to Enjoy Your Boat Rental

At BomBay boat rentals, we know there is nothing better than getting out on the water for a fun-filled day with family and friends. If you've never rented a boat before, we would like to invite you to rent the best boats at the Lake of the Ozarks from BomBay Boat Rental. They can be a great way to get away and have a GREAT day. Here are four fun ways you can enjoy your boat rental at the Lake of the Ozarks.


Visit a Lakefront Restaurant

The Lake of the Ozarks is a famous destination for vacations, and where there are great vacations there is AMAZING food. From cajun favorites to luxury dining, you are sure to find the perfect place to park the boat and enjoy a meal with a lakefront view. In fact, if you're looking for a great place to stop - don't forget the NEWLY RENOVATED Boathouse Lakeside Bar & Grill. We may be a bit biased, but they are the BEST lakefront restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks and would be a perfect place to stop for a bite to eat.

Ride the Aquatic Trail

Are you looking for a fun way to enjoy the afternoon on the water, while still getting to see the sights around the Lake area? Try the Lake of the Ozarks Aquatic Trail. It is administered by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources as a part of the Lake of the Ozarks State Park. It's a nine-mile, two-hour boating excursion and it runs from Public Beach #1 near the Lake's east end, northwest to the Grand Glaize Beach. You can get more information at FunLake.com or find a detailed booklet with a map at the park office.

Sit in a Cove

Want to enjoy a lazy day on the water? Than "coving out" may be a great way for you and your friends or family to enjoy your BomBay boat. Anchor down in a nice, quiet cove, play your favorite music, lounge on your boat and get some sun, go fishing, or even just swim around the boat. There are many fun and relaxing aspects to sitting in a cove and enjoying the beautiful day.

Ride the Channel

This is one of the most common ways to enjoy your boat rental. Whether you want to ride through the Lake area and enjoy the scenery or get more adventurous with water activities like tubing or water skiing - the main channel has many fun things to enjoy.


Renting a Boat at the Lake of the Ozarks

It's time to get your summer plans nailed down and secured, and you can start with your boat rental. We have membership options available to make renting easier than ever - and you only pay for the months out of the year that you actually use the boat!
