Boat Rental Policies & Guidelines

• Pier 1000 Marina will only rent watercraft to persons 21 years of age or older. A valid drivers license must be presented upon registration. The watercraft will be assigned to renter and a rental agreement and orientation checklist must be completed before departing launch site. The person providing the deposit, must be the one to sign the boat rental agreement. Any person not signatory to the rental agreement may not operate the watercraft.
• A 50% deposit is required before any watercraft will be reserved for you. This deposit will be credited to the rental fee at time of registration. This is a non-refundable deposit due to the limited season and demand for watercraft.
• To ensure full rental time, please arrive at least 30 minutes prior to your start time.
• All rentals require a $1000.00 damage deposit. All damage deposits must be made on a pre-authorized credit card or cash deposit at time of rental. This deposit will be refunded 100% when watercraft is returned undamaged, excepting normal wear and tear.
• A representative of Pier 1000 will inspect each watercraft prior to departure for prior damage. We strongly advise you to perform your own inspection as well. Please be thorough, as you will be responsible for any damage found upon return.
• Pier 1000 Marina is not responsible for any fines or fees incurred during rental. It is recommended that persons operating the watercraft familarize themselves with Michigan's boating laws and responsibilities. Click here to view Michigan's Boater's Handbook.
