Want to Rent: Looking for Long term S/V rental

[JR Cunningham]

Hello, My name is JR and I am new to this forum. My wife and myself are looking to rent someone's private cruiser sailboat for 30 days or more. We are looking to purchase a 42 - 50ft cruiser and presently are owners and sail our smaller boat in Cascade Locks Oregon[ where the wind blows hard ] We are recently retired and want to sail the world. I am prepared to pay a charter fee and insurance in advance to take take all risk off the owner. I am willing to accept full responsibility for the boat as if I was the owner. Boats are generally better off being used as apposed to sitting idle in a marina or yard. I am a prior Portland Police officer and current business owner in Oregon. The boat I rent will come back better then when I received it. We are thinking the San Juan area, or any where the weather is nice. We are prepared to fly in at almost anytime, anywhere. We are looking to rent a S/V that is close to what we want to purchase. Single handed, water maker, Air-conditioning, ect If anyone on this forum has any ideas to make this come to fruition, please let us know. Thanks much. Cunninghamtrucking76 at yahoo dot com

I will give my cell number when I hear from you.

Personally, I rented a Mobius here: https://www.zeboats.com/used-boats/boat-rent-to-own

I liked this service, besides the fact that we had to pay compensation for scratching the boat. But this is our fault

Hope I helped, good luck!)

Charter and insurance cannot be paid in advance if you already own a boat

This type of this isn’t normally available ( ie long term trans oceanic /long distance rental )

Firstly the insurance is incredibly problematic, secondly the security deposit would need to be the value of the boat. Thirdly this is a commercial charter and requires the owner to jump a pile of hoops
