A $200 security deposit is required at the time of rental if you choose not to use one of our company captains. Please note that we do not provide insurance.

By renting one of our boats, you acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for the safe operation of the vessel during your rental period. You assume all liability for any accidents, damages, injuries, or issues that may arise while on the water, whether caused by you, your passengers, or any third parties. This includes any damage to the boat, property, or injury to individuals onboard or others in the vicinity. We highly recommend following all safety guidelines, respecting boating laws, and ensuring that all passengers are aware of proper safety procedures. You are required to provide a sober driver if operating the boat without a provided captain. We are not responsible for any loss or damages incurred during the rental.

Question 5

What Are The Requirements To Drive A Pontoon?

Accepted Answer

In Wisconsin, the requirements to operate a pontoon boat depend on your date of birth:

• If you were born on or before December 31, 1988, you are not required to have a boating safety certificate. A valid photo ID is sufficient.

• If you were born on or after January 1, 1989, you must have a valid Wisconsin Boating Safety Education Certificate to operate a motorized boat, including pontoons.

The boating safety course can be completed online through a state-approved provider. Once finished, you will receive a certificate that meets Wisconsin's legal requirements.

If you are unsure whether you qualify or need help finding a course, feel free to contact us. We are happy to assist you before your rental.

Question 6

What Is Our Rental Policy?

Accepted Answer

All rentals must be booked at least 24 hours in advance of the scheduled rental time. We do not accept same-day or next-day bookings under any circumstances.

To receive a full refund, cancellations must be made at least 10 days prior to the scheduled rental date. Cancellations made within 10 days of the rental are non-refundable unless the boat is rebooked by another party for the same date and time. If the boat is successfully rebooked, a full refund will be issued. To cancel a reservation, please contact us via email at wompcityboatrentals@gmail.com

In the event of severe weather conditions at the time of your rental, you will have the option to reschedule your rental for another available date within the same rental season or receive a full refund if rescheduling is not possible. Severe weather conditions include thunderstorms, and sustained winds of 13 miles per hour or higher. Please note that cloudy skies, temperature changes, light rain, and mild wind do not qualify as severe weather and do not warrant cancellations or refunds.

Additionally, if wind conditions are above 8 miles per hour but below 13 miles per hour, all rentals will be automatically moved to Lake Monona for safety. If winds exceed 13 miles per hour, we may cancel or reschedule the rental at our discretion in the interest of customer safety.
