Has anyone seen anything like this that works? Do you think people use it to share rides (find a pull/3rd)?

I have thought about it. The older I get the less hassle I want dealing with the boat and all the gear. Would be nice to just run out of the office. catch a quick set and be back in the office.

I have a development team that has done something similar. I'm not sure how much it would be used either.

There are a number of websites where you can rent boats but I have not seen those take off either and they have been at it for a few years now. fun2rent, boatbound, getinmyboat and a few others.

boatbound had a huge amount of cash with some initial investment(thought I heard in the 1.2 million range) but I really don't think they have done much in the space.

I'd love to see what others think.
