Nothing ruins a perfect boat day faster than worrying about fuel. At Blue Water Boat Rental, we make it easy by sending you out with a full tank — but knowing a little about fuel use helps you plan smarter trips and enjoy peace of mind on the water.
Beginner Tip: Full Tank Provided — No Worries
For first-time renters, there’s no need to stress. We always send boats out with a full tank of fuel, so you can relax and focus on fun.
Intermediate Tip: Be Mindful of Run Time vs. Idle Time
As you gain confidence, it helps to think about how you’re using fuel. Running at speed burns more than idling through no-wake zones or anchoring at Peanut Island. Keep this in mind if you’re planning a long day on the water.
Pro Tip: Save Fuel with Smart Throttle Use
Experienced boaters know that the throttle is key. Avoid constant full-throttle bursts — instead, find the “sweet spot” cruising speed where the boat runs smoothly and efficiently. Not only will you save fuel, but you’ll also enjoy a smoother ride.
✅ Captain’s Reminder: With a full tank and smart boating habits, you’ll have more than enough fuel for your Blue Water adventure.
