Celebrate National Great Outdoors Month On the Water!

The entire month of June is National Great Outdoors Month! National Great Outdoors month is all about escaping the indoors and getting back to nature. Here at the Lake of the Ozarks, we are very furniture to have so many great ways to celebrate! At BomBay Boat Rental Co, we think the best way to celebrate is to get out on the water! If you don't own a boat - no problem, you can rent one from our boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks! Find out a few fun ways to spend time on the water this June below. 


Rent a Jetski 

Get active by getting outside, enjoying the sunshine, and having a wildly good time, as well. It’s time to rent a Lake of the Ozarks jet ski from Bombay Boat Rental. Jet skis are so much fun and after you come back from your ride, you'll be ready to book another day out! 

Aquatic Trail

This is a very unique trail that you need a boat to travel at the Lake of the Ozarks State Park. You will find buoys at various locations between the Grand Glaize Beach and the main campground marking the trail. Along this 9-mile-long trail, you will see woodlands, glades, streams, a logging chute, caves, geological structures, and much more. An Aquatic Trail guide is available at the park office, and a copy of this will greatly enhance your tour.

Visit State Parks by Water 

The Lake of the Ozarks has two beautiful State Parks and both of them can access by boat! Not only are these State Parks gorgeous, but they are also completely free to visit!

Ha Ha Tonka State Park

If you dock your boat, there is a short trail next to an enchanting spring to explore. From there, the more adventurous (and in shape) visitors can climb the over 200-step staircase to hike more than 15 miles of trails that wind throughout the park. There are thousands of lush, wooded acres. The park also features historic stone castle ruins high atop the bluff. You will see sinkholes, natural bridges, caves, wildlife, and more. 


Lake of the Ozarks State Park

The lake area boasts the largest state park in Missouri. It encompasses more than 17,400 acres of stunning natural beauty. There are twelve trails winding around this park within its thousands of wooded acres. It's a wonderful spot to get off the boat, stretch your legs, and maybe even have a picnic. Whether you spend a couple of hours or stay overnight, this is a gorgeous natural area to enjoy.

There you have it, several wonderful ways to enjoy National Great Outdoors this June on the water! If you don't own a boat and you'd still like to spend some time out on the water, we have the best boat rentals at the Lake of the Ozarks! Whether you want to rent a jet ski, pontoon, or a ski boat, we have you covered! For your convenience, we have 4 boat rental locations at the Lake of the Ozarks and we deliver too!

Pontoons are great boats to take out on the lake for many reasons and today, our boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks has five reasons pontoons are great a great choice for renting a boat at the Lake of the Ozarks.

#4 Great for Kids 

If you're taking the kiddos out for a day on the water, a pontoon boat is perfect! The seating arrangements offer plenty of room for comfortable seating. There is plenty of room to bring aboard water toys, floaties, and even packing a cooler for a picnic. Your kids will LOVE a day out on the water and your family will have memories that last a lifetime.

Easy as 1 2 3... Obtain Your Missouri Boaters Certification

If you're coming down to the Lake of the Ozarks this summer, you probably have plans to spend some time out on the water. There is no better way to enjoy being at the Lake than having some fun in the sun on one of our boat rentals at the Lake of the Ozarks! If you've never been to the Lake, you may not know that if you were born after January 1, 1984, you will need to obtain your Missouri Boating Certificate before getting out on the water. (If you live out of state and you have a boat license there, Missouri will honor your out of state licenses). Read on to learn more about how to obtain your Missouri Boaters Certification.

Before you get behind the wheel, you will need to obtain your Boater Education Card. It's not hard to get and can be done online. Once you earn it, it is yours for life. An approved boater safety course is required for anyone over the age of 14 that will be operating any vessel on the lakes of Missouri. Under the age of 14, a person may only operate a motorboat or PWC if they are under the direct, onboard supervision of someone 16 years of age or older. There is no minimum age for taking the test though, so children under the age of 14 are welcome to go ahead and earn their own card. Follow these three easy steps below to get your Missouri Boaters Certificate!

1)  Study and Pass the Missouri Boaters Course 

All you need to do is go to www.boat-ed.com/missouri/ to take the course. This site provides great resources for success, including a study guide! The cost to take the course is $24.50 and an additional $17 state fee. You will have two exam attempts, and you don't have to pay until you pass the exam. 

2) Print Your Temporary Certification  

Once you pass the exam, you will be all set to rent a boat at the best boat rental company at the Lake of the Ozarks! You can print a temporary operating permit that will allow you to get on the water immediately. Your official lifetime Boating Certification Card will come in the mail in about 45 days. 

3) Go Boating!

Now that you have passed your exam and you have your tempory printed certification, you are ready to get out and rent a boat from BomBay Boat Rental Company! The best news is your card is good for a lifetime, allowing you to enjoy any Missouri waterway forever! This is perfect for enjoying the Lake of the Ozarks all Summer long.

After you pass the boaters certification, you will be able to enjoy boating for the rest of your life. After the course, you should be equipped with the knowledge for staying safe out on the water. BomBay Boat Rental does not require this but anyone operating a boat or PWC without it could be fined. A one time, a temporary 7-day certificate is available at our each of our locations for a fee of $9.00. To book your summer boat rentals, give us a call or fill out our short form on the website and one of our team members will contact you shortly!
