Many of us know someone with a boat and we all know boat ownership is expensive. So instead of shelling out a ton of cash why not rent your neighbors boat? Most of us who enjoy boating know someone with a boat, well why not ask your friend or neighbor if they would rent it to you for the weekend. Yes, it is really that easy but just remember to tell them that everyone including their boat is covered with insurance at Fun2Rent.com, a peer-to-peer recreation and powersport rental site.
Fun2Rent connects owners of powersport and recreational vehicles with qualified renters. It is an easy, affordable way to rent boats, jet skis, ATV's, snowmobiles, and more close to home or in popular vacation destinations. Owners can also earn some extra cash by renting out vessels that would other wise sit idle in their driveway.
Want an example?
In a typical neighborhood with 125 homes, there are bound to be some boating enthusiast. Let's say that 5 households own a boat. At a cost of $30,000 per boat, there is a total of $150,000 sitting in the garages and driveways of your neighbors. This is without taking into account the cost to the environment in creating these vessels. After ten years, this cost could double or triple as owners replace their old boat for a newer, shinier model and others buy new boats of their own.
Is there a better way?
If the residents of this neighborhood used Fun2Rent.com, money could be save and waste could be diverted from the landfill. If, for example, the owners of the boats use them two weekends out of every month, then this leaves another two weekends a month during which owners could rent their vessel. This sharing of resources means fewer boats would need to be purchased, saving money for the renter and providing extra income to the owner to offset the cost and expense of boat ownership.
Renter or owner, everyone wins!
Four or five neighbors could easily share one boat and still manage to get on the water multiple times during the summer. By sharing instead of purchasing a boat neighbors can save tens of thousands of dollars a year, which can then be used to pay off bills or maybe take that dream vacation.
So if you want to go boating, why not ask to rent your neighbors boat? Maybe after the first year of renting you decide to purchase a boat yourself, well now you can easily recoup the expense through renting it out the days your not using it at Fun2Rent.com
