Thinking about starting a jet ski rental business
 

I've been thinking about starting a jet ski rental this summer. The thing that would make me stand out would be providing the stand up jet skis as opposed to the sit down ones everyone uses now. Startup costs wouldn't be that much because the skis aren't that expensive and i could run it out of a trailer.

Questions:

If you were at a lake and saw them for rent, what is the chance you would rent one?

How much would you expect to pay an hour?

i'd expect to pay through the teeth for insurance. :-\

probably. I'd incorporate too so I wouldn't be personally liable

I'd say something like $50 for an hour would be reasonable. When I went out to lake tahoe for a wedding, they charged $100/hr i believe, but then again, thats tahoe.

beat me to it

Ya, I was thinking about that for price. I'd be going for volume of rentals as opposed to a couple people at a high price. The sit downs go for about 100 an hour but I think with a lower price I could get a younger crowd as well.

just do what they do when i rented a boat. charge 2 dollars a minute for every minute its not back on time. out on the lake its hard to keep track of time cause your having fun. also time goes by really fast so no one will plan out for a 5 hour rental they will try and do 4 and be 30 minutes late. and then bam you just made an extra $60

be careful aiming for the younger crowd, your ---- is going to get abused as apposed to the ski that got rented to the 30 year dude and his wife. I know i never gave a ---- about rental property

I'm ------ sly and quick, like a mexican ninja

Re: Thinking about starting a jet ski rental business
 

if i was you i'd go to a place that has been in business for a while and ask them for a copy of their rental agreement.
then copy the fucker.
oh but to answer your question
i wouldn't rent one cause i'm not a fag.
you know how i know you are gay? you rented a jet ski at the lake, faggot

Re: Thinking about starting a jet ski rental business
 

good call on the younger crowd not giving a ----. I didn't think about that. And I will definitely use the $2 a minute idea, that sounds like it would work great.
