Drift Boat Rental

[427Ranger]

Is there a vendor in Calgary that rents drift boats?

You can get a half or full day boat rental at a quite few places.. they even come with guides to navigate the water for you..

 

 

heh.. sorry couldn't help it.. not sure about strictly a boat rental.

I tried this out years ago and never found anybody. The one shuttle company used to do it but it was very expensive and you had to jump through hoops first.

 

You can rent drift boats at most of the major rivers in Montana, typically for US$150 or so per day including the shuttle of both the boat and your vehicle to the takeout. The Missouri at Craig's a great place to practice handling a driftboat if you're new at it, as the upper river is very gentle and straightforward to row at anything but super high water.

Thank WG. I rented a boat in Craig 3 years ago. Lots of fun. I have 2 buds coming from out of town that want to drift the Bow with me. Unfortunately, my 2 person Outcast pontoon can only fit one of them. I was hoping a vendor in the city rents drift boats. I guess not.

I think the university outdoor club still rents pontoons, if that helps.

Saw somewhere you can rent rafts with fishing frames On Kijji in a ad for the boat forsale from the rcmp
