Power boats include pontoon boats, Boston Whalers, 14-foot Trackers and Edgewater center consoles with fish finders. To rent a powerboat, a Florida Safe Boater card is required. The card is available free of charge online at www.boatus.org. Reservations for powerboats must be made in person with a $25 deposit. Tents, sleeping pads, cots, camp stoves, lanterns, large grills, coolers, turkey fryers, and much more are also available to rent.
The Ship's Store on the waterfront carries bait, ice, snacks, a variety of drinks, fishing licenses, fishing tackle, sunglasses, T-shirts, outdoor recreation knives, basic boat parts and various sundries to meet boating needs. The store also has unleaded ethanol free marine gasoline pier-side and a free boat ramp.
Slips, moorings and dry storage are available on a daily, monthly and yearly rental basis for the boat owner. At the slips, fresh water and 30/50 power is available. Live-aboards are permitted only on a temporary basis.
