Feel like luxury and experience summer the right way with our deck speed boat rentals! A deck speed boat is designed with maximum open space and speed for recreational water sports, fishing, cruising around, and entertaining guests. With it’s an expanded bow section, you can maximize the seating and deck area – hence the name.
Similar to pontoon boats deck speed boats have amazing handling, thanks in big part to that v-shaped hull. If you’re looking to rent a watercraft that can handle rough waters like the ocean or seas, a deck boat is one of your better options, as a deep V-hulled deck boat will handle rough waters better than other hulls, especially if it has a narrow bow to easily cut through all the waves. The result would be a smooth and steady ride fit for a scene straight out of Bay Watch.
The great thing about renting a deck speed boat is that riders can expect a smooth ride no matter the speed. You don’t have to be super experienced to enjoy the ease of a deck boat. Drivers can enjoy easy steering compared to other boats this size.
