24-Foot Hurricane Ski Boat on Lake Gaston: Wakeboard, Kneeboard & Tube Rentals

Hurricane Ski Boat at 2192 River Rd, Henrico, NC 27842, USA puts you on Lake Gaston, a broad reservoir on the North Carolina–Virginia line where long protected coves and steady water make for excellent tow-sport conditions. This offering centers on a 24' Hurricane ski boat with 250 HP built to pull wakeboarders, knee-boarders and inflatable riders; it’s a compact, powerful rig that handles lake chop while keeping spots for friends to ride. Rentals require a four-day minimum and run 4–14 day options; daily rental pickup begins at 10 a.m. and multi-day pickups at 9 a.m., with final returns by mid- to late-afternoon. The business operates from the slip at the above address and provides a straightforward rental: $650 per day (four-day minimum) with a 50% nonrefundable deposit. Rules are explicit: no night operation, boats must be docked by 5 p.m. and daily rentals refueled and returned by 4 p.m., and towing behind certain pontoons is prohibited. Lake Gaston averages about 35 feet deep—know the depth chart and stay 200 feet off docks and shorelines around populated coves. Why this rental stands out: Lake Gaston’s shoreline alternates steep carved banks and low-lying marshy arms, creating protected stretches for learning tricks and open reaches for longer runs. The lake’s combination of clear, slow-moving water and abundant coves makes it easier to read wakes and pick safe drop zones. Anglers around the marina praise the same structure for summer bass fishing, while eagle and osprey sightings are common along wooded shorelines. Practical notes for visitors: bring Coast Guard–approved life jackets for every rider, a responsible licensed operator, and printed depth or nautical charts. The business did not provide an owner/operator name; confirm operator qualifications when booking. Expect lake traffic on summer weekends and pack sunscreen, a dry bag, and a small repair kit for tow ropes. For families and groups, multi-day rentals let you set a relaxed rhythm—mornings for tow sports, afternoons for fishing or shoreline exploration. Plan for at least one full-day itinerary: morning wake sessions when winds are light, midday rest at a shallow cove for lunch and a swim, and late-afternoon exploration of inlets where shoreline hardwoods drop to the water. Local marinas and bait shops supply fuel and bait; Henrico has basic services and vacation rental options for groups. Operators should brief renters on local speed zones, hidden shallow flats near old creek mouths, and the lake’s seasonal vegetation growth, which can catch ropes if you get too close. Book early for holiday weekends—these boats move fast. Enjoy.
