Jupiter Inlet Boat Rentals

They were prompt answering the phone. They tool my reservation promptly as well. The woman at the front desk was extremely friendly. They provided great information for boating destinations. The boat was clean and gas was filled. The boat rental was half a day from 1 – 5. They asked us to call when we were minutes away so someone would be at the gas pump waiting for us. They were there and ready to help us off the boat. Very friendly staff.

We rented a 24′ deck boat for my daughter’s Sweet 16 snorkeling party. From the moment we arrived at the dock, June made us feel welcome and was super helpful. Our dock hand was also genuinely nice both when we were leaving and when we returned the boat. We had a wonderful afternoon on the water! The boat was perfect, ran great and was really good on fuel. I highly recommend this company for boat rentals. We are already planning another trip!

Our family rented a 25′ deck boat this week. The service all around was excellent. Our initial phone conversations were professional and helpful. They day we arrived everyone was wonderful to work with. We appreciated their attention to safety. the boat was immaculate and functioned perfectly. They gave us a great map and good suggestions. Can’t wait to do this again. Highly, highly recommend.

Poor equipment nothing electrical on boat worked. Am/​fm Stereo the ship to shore radio the Fuel gauge were NOT working. I was told its an old boat the oldest in there fleet. Being agitated i took the boat out since they already charged my cc before seeing the boat. The steering was a constant fight all day very difficult to steer straight. I was told upon returning that it has a poor hull design.
The waterways are restricted with 5mph to a maximum of 25 mph basicity a Slow Hot day. Not much to see or do in the local water ways not very scenic at all. I brought the boat back 3hrs early and i was given $ 50 off for my troubles. I would Not recommend this place at all.

Great experience! Staff was really nice and Captain Joe was great, we are already planning our next trip with him!

Spoke to June to setup a half day rental. All went smooth and the boats are newer and in great shape.
Gas not included-​we spent $ 47 on our half day rental but we went easy on boat.
TIP: go at 8:30a M-​F and get $ 50 off rental.
Captain: ask captain Joe — he is very knowledgeable about the history of the area.

We booked a private half day rental with a guide — Captain Joe. My son wanted to fish, I wanted to collect shells, and my husband wanted to relax. We got to do a little of everything while enjoying Joe’s stories about Jupiter Island. Having grown up here, he was very knowledgable about the area & even gave us tips on what to do for the rest of our stay.
The only negative would be the price. While we did get a $ 50 discount for booking an early morning slot, this was still pricey.

Best place in florida to rent boats from. From the very nice Manager in the office to the fellas on the dock. The place is first class with a nice, well maintained fleet. will definitely be back.

Great option for getting out on the water.
We’ve rented from here a few times and have always had a good experience. The boats are pretty basic — don’t expect too much, but they’ve always worked well for us.

We had a great experience renting a boat from Jupiter inlet. The price was fair and the service was outstanding. Clean and safe boat. Great day on the water. We will be back again to rent another boat

My gf and I rented jet skis from here and had the greatest time. The lady at the front desk was very nice and informative. We would defiantly go again.

This was our second time renting from JBR– first time ¹²⁄₁₄ (center console) second time ²⁄₁₅ (2014 dual console Cobia). yes I agree w JD about the excessive push to rent a deck boat even tho we stated we wanted to fish and wanted a center console. We experienced the same engine/​fuel problem but knew ourselves how to resolve and the same broken ladder.
for our first experience the small office was crowded and our children were asked to wait outside and yes that did upset us.
Our second most recent experience we met June, she was just lovely. welcoming us into the office, explaining the charts and enacting with the 4 children in our party. we had an awesome day. we saw lots of dolphins, manatees, pelicans and the children got to run around on the sand bar.
overall we would recommend renting from JBR —
can’t really think of a better way to spend the day with the family– we loved the cobia and we’lll be back.

Our party of 8 rented a deck boat on Saturday. We had an extremely positive experience! June greeted us with a big smile while she patiently explained the «rules of the waters». The checkin process was smooth and organized. The 12 person deck boat performed perfectly and we were proud to be in it. I felt the fees charged were very reasonable.

My wife and I rented from Jupiter Inlet Boat Rental today and we had a wonderful, first class experience. I always Unilocal a business prior to using them and read the negative review left by J.D. but decided to rent anyway. My experience with June was the polar opposite, from my initial phone contact with her to my check out, June was courteous, professional and knowledgable. Being new to the area, June spent time with me going over and marking charts and writing down points of interest. This made our trip really great! I even called her from the boat for some dock and dine options. Guanabana was an excellent stop! Added bonus is you get 10% off your check if you come by boat! My rental boat was a new Cobia with a fuel sipping Four Stroke Yamaha. What a pleasure to handle. Perfect for this area and won’t empty your wallet at the gas dock! Doug went over the boat’s safety features prior to our trip and met us at the gas dock to fill her up when we where done… first class treatment. If you really want to experience this beautiful area the right way, give June a call and rent a boat from Jupiter Inlet Boat Rental.

I have found that the boats at Inlet Boat rentals to be clean and dependable. I also find the manager «June» to be exellent in getting us into the boats best suited for our trip. The roomy comfortable deck boats are our favorites. The fact that June makes sure our kids get safety vests that are the right type and size and that we are «checked out» on the boats before we leave the dock that gives us the peace of mind we need to enjoy our trip.
I can’t imagine how boating could be any easier.
Thanks June!

What a great day, grey experience. Made a reservation a week ago and received a ton of helpful information about what to expect. It was very helpful. When we arrived we got the exact boat listed on their web page. We had 12 people and I was concerned the boat would be too small but it was perfect. Before we left we went over the map and the boat with members of the company and were off for the day. What an awesome day, what am AWSOME experience. What an awesome company. We will be back!

If you’re local; have grown up and are familiar with boats, are familiar with marine navigation around Jupiter, Palm Beach; want your boat to run without problems; and want your family (especially children) to be treated with respect, then don’t rent here. We’ve rented from this business 4x and each experience has been met with an increasingly, annoyingly negative experience. Each of our previously negative experiences was met with giving June the benefit of the doubt, deciding that everyone has their idiosyncracies, and we would move on. However, this most recent experience needs to be shared. 1) Truth in advertising — Not. Be aware that they have a total of 9 vessels in their fleet, 7 deck boats, 2 center console fisherman boats. June will always try and sell you on the deck boats even if that’s not what you want. The website advertises a 24′ and 26′ center console fisherman boat. We were given a 23′ boat. If you’re familiar with water vessels, you understand that this makes a difference. This was not as comfortable as we wanted in a 24′ boat. When I reserved the boat, June continued to insist that I rent the deck boat instead. This was after I explained that we’re experienced mariners who just happen to not have a boat nor get out on the water often anymore, grew up in the area, and this would be our 4^th time renting with them. We rented the 24′ expecting that we would get the same boat that we rented just 3 months prior. Looking at their fleet, the 24′ that we previously rented was no longer in the water and therefore unavailable. 2) Boat runs and is equipped without issue — Not. The fuel line must have had a hole, allowing too much air to circulate. This prevented the boat from accelerating from idle without stalling. The boat required priming the fuel line with each re-​start. The boarding ladder was broken and the metal clip was bent creating a hazard for boarding the boat. This required us to rig lines off the stern of the boat so we could have leverage every time we re-​boarded the boat. My 6 year old daughter ended up getting caught on the bent metal clip off the back of the boat. When we returned the vessel, we notified the employee who docked our boat after refueling. This was only met with indifference. 3) «Thank you for coming back, we appreciate your business!» — Not. When June was told multiple times, over the phone, in person, that this was the 4^th time that we’ve rented with their business, this was only met with an «I don’t care» attitude. It’s obvious that children, in general, annoy her. This has been evident with each of the 4 visits. This time, I witnessed her lecturing/​chiding a child without provocation, not in our group who was walking out of the bathroom, that «he better get back on the other side». (The restaurant, U-​Tiki and boat rental office share bathrooms.) June insisted on wanting to know where/​why we were taking the boat out in the ocean and/​or to the Palm Beach Inlet /​Peanut Island, stressing that it was too far or that it was going to pour down rain in the afternoon and we would get stuck. Weather on that day: winds out of the SE at 5, seas 1 ft, partly cloudy, dry skies. It was a perfect boating weather day. I can understand if we weren’t from the area or were 1^st time boaters. However, the fact that we’re local and were repeat customers, was lost on her. Net, net: June is unstable. Her employees in the past have told us: «She’s crazy.» Unless you join a boat club, there aren’t many options in the area to just rent a boat for a half or full day. This leaves a family like us with few options. Buyer beware.

There are apparently quite a few boat and jet ski rentals around West Palm Beach, and after calling a few we started to give up hope. We had a large party with 5 kids, and wanted to rent 3 jet skis at the same time. It’s understandable why these places don’t make reservations, but this was the only place that was honest and upfront about it. Other rental places would tell you to come down, and they will have something for us — only to find out there was an hour our two wait before something would be available. June, who works at the Jupiter Inlet Boat Rentals, said that they had all three, but couldn’t guarantee that they’ll still be available when we got there. Luckily for us they still had them and we had a blast. The jet skis were brand new, June took the time to explain everything, and we got out on the water with minimal hassle. The stretch of the intercostal runs right behind all the mansions of the rich and famous, and there are plenty of opportunities to open up the throttle. Altogether we had a great time, and I’m sure we’ll be back again.
