Diverse Boat Rentals & Tours
01 — About

The brief.

Diverse Boat Rentals & Tours is a family-owned operator based at Harbour West Marina on 319 Champlain Road in Penetanguishene, about 90 minutes north of Toronto on Southern Georgian Bay. After 15 years renting boats, waverunners, and water toys, the fleet covers 14-foot aluminum fishing boats, 19-foot bowriders, 20- and 22-foot pontoons, and Yamaha VX 110-horsepower waverunners, alongside SUPs, kayaks, canoes, and floating mats. Captained 1–8 hour charters take up to ten guests to islands, beaches, and Gin Rocks sunsets. Free temporary boat licences are available with every rental, and the operator shares Navionics route files so renters know where to point the bow on the bay.
