427Ranger Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Is there a vendor in Calgary that rents drift boats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianFish Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 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.

WyomingGeorge Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 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.

427Ranger Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I think the university outdoor club still rents pontoons, if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
