Lessee Rules: 1) All pontoon boats must stay a minimum of two hundred (200) feet away from another watercraft, platform, person, object, or shore except at a speed that is slow enough not to create a swell or wake. Always play it safe!!! IDLE WHEN APPROACHING THE DOCK OR ANOTHER BOAT. 2) THE BOAT NEEDS TO BE COMPLETELY FLOATING WHILE ENGINE IS RUNNING AND IN GEAR. DON’T EVER DRIVE THE BOAT ON TO THE BEACH, OR DEPART BY JUST PUTTING IT IN REVERSE. The propeller needs to have at least 3 feet of water clearance to the bottom before putting the engine in gear. Failure to do so may result in propeller and/or motor damage by rocks, sand and debris hitting the propeller and entering the cooling system. Damaged propeller and or motor, or clogged cooling system will cause you to loose your deposit and cost you other applicable charges for repair(s). When beaching the boat, always put the engine in neutral 20-30 feet before reaching the shoreline and turn off engine quickly.

DON’T EVER ANCHOR OR TURN ENGINE OFF IN NAVIGATION CHANNEL (middle of river between green and red buoys). Barges and large commercial boats don’t have breaks and you could get run over if you became unable to get out of their way. 4) No participants may steer the equipment unnecessarily close to the wake or recklessly try to cross the wake of another vessel, especially barges as this can throw passengers off and cause structural damage to the boat. This is also illegal and very dangerous.
