We rented a pontoon boat to take out with our family. We had 11 people in our family: 6 adults and…read more5 children. We were under capacity for both people on the boat and also for the weight limits. I also want to point out that the lake was not very busy and the water was pretty calm. We noticed immediately that the steering wheel pulled really bad and need to be oversteered to the left. While we were driving, we began to notice that the boat was leaning to one side and we were getting sprayed a lot on that side. We had two adults and two small children on the front section of the boat (we had tried to reposition weight several times because of the way that the boat was behaving). As we were behind another boat, we hit a a few waves that a pontoon should have easily been able to take. Water rushed over the front of the boat to the point that it seemed as if we were going to sink. Two of our kids went overboard and two parents had to jump in to make sure they didn't go under the boat. At some point during this, a piece of the aluminum trim on that side of the boat fell off. We also noticed that the pontoon on that side of the boat was dented. Needless to say, we drove back to the marina with some very scared kiddos and anxious/frustrated parents. At the dock, Jeff asked what happened and didn't allow us time to fully explain the situation before blaming us for having too many people in the front seats of the boat (2 women and 2 kids). He argued that this was operator error. We paid the full price for 8 hours of use (we were out for about 5 hours) for an already damaged pontoon. Jeff also informed us that we owed an extra $250 for the trim that fell off during this ordeal. He was extremely unprofessional and did not offer any concern about this incident, even though our kids left feeling unsafe and we talked to him about our concerns. As we were leaving, he was filling the boat up with gas, so I worry that this boat will be rented out again to some poor unsuspecting family and worse will occur. Do not rent from these people. They do not care about their customers, only about money.

They moved the boat from the hoist and made it ready for us to board. They went over some of the more basic rules. The pontoon we rented was a tri-hull.

We also took a pull behind water tube for the kids. The staff was kind, friendly and very knowledgeable. When we returned the boat it was very easy.

Seamless second-boat purchase -- exceptional team and selection…read more I purchased my second boat, a 2026 Ranger Z521r, from Pete Peterson and the entire Pro Choice Marine staff and could not be more impressed. From my first conversation with Pete through delivery and follow-up, every team member was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure the boat matched my needs. The selection at Pro Choice Marine made choosing the Ranger effortless; they offered clear comparisons, honest guidance, and transparent pricing. The sales process was smooth and efficient, financing and paperwork were handled promptly, and the delivery and setup were flawless -- the boat arrived exactly as promised and was ready to go. Post-sale support and attention to detail from the service team sealed the experience: they answered every question, walked me through features, and made sure I felt comfortable behind the wheel. I recommend Pete Peterson and Pro Choice Marine without reservation to anyone shopping for a boat -- outstanding customer service, an excellent inventory, and a team that truly cares. Five stars.

Calling and checking on prices, The Getaway was the first that appeared to be interested in working with me and patiently explained they didn't do little (we were a party of five) fishing boats anymore. We ended up getting a new Tritoon that could probably hold a dozen persons, no problem. Secured our fishing licenses and found the rental location where a young man was waiting with a side-by-side, willing to haul our gear down to the dock. Checking in was smooth and easy, instructions were given, and directions and ideas shared on the best areas to fish. Well, the fishing wasn't great, although we changed location a few times, and we hoped to stop at a dockside restaurant, so returned the boat a bit early so we wouldn't go over our allotted time. The Tritoon performed beautifully (hair trigger on the throttle), powerful motors, shade, pockets for storage. They were right--the Triton was very stable, waves no problem. Expected to pay for gas in addition to quoted price but apparently overlooked or forgot about the cleaning fee. The young man hauled our gear back up the hill. Would love to return with a larger party and really have some fun.
