Bobbie's Boat Rental in Barnegat, NJ was an outstanding experience! The rental process was easy,…read morethe boat was clean and well-maintained, and the staff was friendly and helpful from start to finish. At just $250, it was a great value--and they even included free bait, which was a nice bonus. We had an awesome day on the water and couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking to get out on the bay for a day of fishing or just to enjoy the water, I highly recommend Robbie's Boat Rental. We'll definitely be back!

NO-Star Review I…read morewould add NEGATIVE stars if I could. A year later and this is place still the worst. A keyboard-warrior owner who can't respond to FACTS with any sort of humility or accountability. Steer clear of this place at all cost. ---- I rented a pontoon boat from Starky's in LBI for a birthday with 7 middle-schoolers, and it was by far the worst rental experience I've (we've all) ever had. The boat was completely unsafe, dilapidated, and quite frankly embarrassing for such a special occasion. Here's what we encountered: Unreliable Motor: * Constantly stalled, barely had power, extremely smoky old 2-stroke that smelled like gas the entire trip. No Ladder: * Nearly impossible for kids to get in/out of the bay safely. Yes, I know they say "no swimming," the bay was only about two feet deep where we docked during our short, miserable outing. We all just wanted to get off the wretched boat and enjoy the water for a little while--because that was the only part of the day that felt tolerable. Unsafe Design: * Exposed gas tank - no cover on housing. * Trim aluminum around decks ripped open with jagged shards and protruding screws/rivets--serious cut hazards, making it EVEN HARDER to get on and off the boat with no ladder. * Railings you couldn't touch without risk of being cut. Filthy Condition: * Moldy, green junk around bottom of seats by floor, that smelled like a stagnant lagoon. * Ripped seats "repaired" with rusty staples sticking out. * Dingy, stained, moldy life jackets. No Working Features: * Dead electronics. * Broken motor trim button. Unstable Ride: The boat listed to one side the entire day, making it unsafe to navigate even small wakes. We had to cut our trip TWO HOURS short because it was simply unsafe and miserable. The cost vs. what we received was outrageous. This was not just disappointing--it was dangerous and embarrassing to take out a group of preteens on. For the actual record: * We did not stay out the full time. We cut the trip 2 hours short, left early, and didn't come to the owner after directly because it would not have ended well based on his responses here on google, and his lack of any kind of care for the business - it's a loss I took the second i booked the boat last month. * I listened closely during the haphazard "safety class", have rented boats in the past and have experience with boats, boating and anchoring in the Barnegat Bay - and this is an experience i'll hopefully soon forget. This is simply a factual list and round up of our experience. Bottom line: I'm shocked no one was injured. This was a hazardous, dilapidated boat that should not be rented to anyone and the business should be under scrutiny by the appropriate agencies.

We left on time, motored away from the dock, headed towards the inlet, put up the sails and . . . off we went. The sea was not too choppy and the wind was strong, but not too strong. We took a two hour cruise and it went quickly. We had a nice ride into the ocean, with Captain George pointing out some birds but we all got really excited when we came across some dolphins. It's fun to watch them arch out of the water and gracefully swim in pairs and triplets. We turned around in the ocean and headed back into the inlet and the bay, just in time for a beautiful sunset scene. Perfect timing to enjoy the colors of the setting sun over Barnegat Bay . . . a nice end to a nice week at the Shore. . . I thought that the price was fair for the time and the experience.

He said it was just too crazy on the water and it just wasn't safe. But he made up for our disappointment, by giving us some unbelievable comps.
