Orlando/Winter Haven area boat rental

[MitchellM]

This is a longshot, but I'm wondering if any of the folks in the central florida area know of anyone who rents boats for 3-4 days at the end of July. I'm on the coast in Clearwater and no longer have my own boat. Typically we pay for pulls for my family at Jody's or at Matt Rini's, but I am considering buying a house on a lake and would like to try out the lifestyle with my family by renting a house and a boat for a bit before I purchase. The only boats I can find for rent are pontoon boats! Frustrating, because I have rented boats suitable for skiing in New York, Georgia and South Carolina in the past.

 

Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Tommy's Malibu in Clermont, FL does rent inboards. Not certain if it is only the anti-Christ of the lakes...wakeboard boats, but give them a call.

@GWaterski has a lake front rental, with boat available in the orlando area.

So does @Drew_Wright_OBXtoFl ;)

Thanks for the tips. I will try to contact those fellow ballers and look into Tommy's.

@MitchellM We just renovated a lakefront cottage West of Orlando that may be perfect for your vacation!'Check out -- https://tinyurl.com/tmzz5zw

@ScottScott my wife just reminded me that we met you while we were skiing at Jody's 4 weeks ago. I didn't make the connection. I was there with all three of my kids and you were commenting that you had a friend who had a house for rent nearby. It has now gone full circle! Thanks for your timely advice and recommendation. Working with Gary now to firm this up.

@MitchellM Glad it worked out, hope you have a good time. Hopefully you'll make it out to jodi's once or twice while in town, and I'll likely see you there.
