Those at least 25 years of age and born on or after July 1, 1996, may operate a boat (ski or pontoon boat) legally only if they have been issued a boating safety certificate and have it on board the boat

What Our Customers Have To Say! ★★★★★
My family has rented boats from here for 3 years now. Every year we have an incredible time! From ordering to docking the boat, the service we have received is exceptional. Tammy and Brad are so kind and knowledgeable. I can’t wait to continue our tradition next year!
We are renting for at least the fifth time this summer from Tammy and Brad. They are reliable and take really great care of their boats. We’ve tried others in the past but none compare. I can’t see us renting anywhere else. They’re excellent!
I have been a customer of Brad & Tammy for about 20 years, renting a boat annually. Everything has gone very well and I would recommend them for boat rental highly.
Been renting from Brad for over 25 years and we have always been more than satisfied! We rent Jet Skis every time and they are always top notch! From start to finish the whole experience is 10/10 every time! I Will always rent from here and I recommend this place to anyone!
Terrific rental experience. Tammy and Brad were very easy to work with, communicated well, were professional and very thorough. I grew up on a lake and still learned a thing or two from Brad when he dropped the boat off. I would definitely rent from them again and recommend them highly.

The lake experience.
Traverse City is the gem of Northern Michigan. While life on land is great, there is nothing more priceless than a sunny day floating on the lake. Our fleet allows families and friends create unforgettable memories on the East Bay of Lake Michigan.
A Priceless Adventure
Located on the East Side of the Cherry Capital, Traverse City's East Bay lies off of Lake Michigan. This lake borders the Leelanau Peninsula, home to many of the Traverse City vineyards & private lakeshore beaches in Traverse City, as well as the Acme Shoreline, home of the Vasa trail.
This freshwater lake lends itself to some of the best Northern Michigan summer activities. From boating, to swimming, to fishing, to kayaking, to sungazing, to sunset chasing, East Bay has something for everyone. It doesn't get much better than summertime in Northern Michigan!

About The Owners

He quickly became infatuated with the sport, and has been expanding his knowledge and fine tuning his skills ever since. Charol Shiffman was born and raised in west Michigan; she was always drawn to the water. Gerry and Charol have been married for thirty three years, and together they have owned and operated multiple sailing vessels, and have charted many nautical miles.

Stand Up Paddle Boards (SUPs)
To rent stand-up paddle boards hourly in Traverse City, just stop by the beach in front of the resort or call us at 231-932-1800 and inquire about hourly rentals. Please note: due to their popularity, these stand-up paddle boards are for West Bay only.
Each of our boats displays a yellow Coast Guard sticker detailing how many people and/or the maximum weight allowance on any given boat. If your group is on the lighter side from recently running the Bayshore marathon, that doesn’t mean you can put more people on the boat than the Coast Guard puts on the yellow sticker. Likewise, if your group just got done with a Nathen’s hotdog eating contest and put on few hundred extra pounds, don’t expect to put eight 250 pound people on a boat rated for 1500 pounds. We take everyone’s safety very seriously, and so should you.
Additional factors like wind and severe weather can cause your rental to be delayed or canceled.
