Pretty much, if it is on or in the water, you can sign up to advertise your business. We cater to everything from pontoon rentals to guided bow fishing. We are a directory for water sports and try to offer our clients a wide variety of options. If you have any questions – please contact us and we will be more than happy to assist.

[/mpc_accordion_tab][mpc_accordion_tab title=”How Are Reservations Made And Accepted?”]

To begin with, you have to think of this website as something akin to Craigslist. We provide the portal for renter and owner to meet and allow them to work out the reservation. Here is an example:

Client is coming to Branson, Missouri and wants to rent a boat for the weekend. They perform a search from the homepage for city and state, numbers of guests and what dates they are looking for. If there is a boat available that matches their search they can submit a booking request.

The owner of the listing will be notified via email they have a reservation inquiry and from there on out, they handle the booking request directly via email or phone. This website is not involved in any portion of the transaction between renter and owner.

[/mpc_accordion_tab][mpc_accordion_tab title=”What’s The Benefit Of Using This Site?”]

What separates our site from your own individual website is the simplicity of search for the renter. Rather than clicking through numerous individual websites to see what is offered, they are able to view everything similar to a Yellow Pages phone book.

Additionally, directory sites allow the travelers to opportunity to view reviews and comments about the owners and business which is incredibly important to them.

[/mpc_accordion_tab][mpc_accordion_tab title=”I Am Confused By Your URL – What Gives?”]

In 2015 the internet evolved by releasing new gTLDs. These are the names you see after the “dot”. By opening up the URLs to these new extensions less traffic became pigeonholed either into a .net or .com

Search engines (Specifically Bing) have treated these extensions very well and are directing traffic to the sites that match the industry. i.e. .attorney – .tech – .casino – and yes .rentals

With .rentals the search engines understand that the purpose of the website is related to the rental industry and as such will show favorable results back to the website when a search is made.

[/mpc_accordion_tab][mpc_accordion_tab title=”Why Two Membership Levels?”]

We offered 2 fixed rate membership packages to help keep the costs down.

The large package is typically for marinas which offer dozens of watercraft for rent. An example would be 30 pontoons, 5 jet skis, and several fishing boats. We have set the rate for this membership at $300/year and nothing more.

The small package is for individual owners or smaller operations who want to advertise but don’t have the larger budget to do so. This package is highly affordable with a fixed annual cost of only $100/year.

Both packages operate exactly the same and give all of the features.

[/mpc_accordion_tab][mpc_accordion_tab title=”I’m Still Not Sold, What Else Do You Offer?”]

Boat.Rentals is part of the VacaRent, LLC family. As an added benefit your listing will also be advertised on our sister websites Vacation.Rentals and Campground.Rentals.

These are two websites directly tied to the marketplace, giving you more exposure than you would ever have with another directory website.
