Vehicle Rentals

We are offering 10% off each item when renting a vehicle with a tow-able item (reservation for both pieces of equipment must be made at the same time)– so rent a Crew Cab F250 pick-up truck, an Explorer or a 15 passenger van along with a camper or a boat.  Enough seating for the entire Family and the towing power to pull anything we have available. 

Campers

The outdoor camping experience you’ve always wanted to have begins here, without actually having to “rough it”. With almost all the amenities your home offers, our pull-behind camper trailers can make your outing experience an enjoyable one. We have small ones that can sleep up to 4 people or larger ones (Toy Hauler) that can sleep up to 8 people.

Boat Rentals Mandatory Safety Requirements

Mandatory Safety Requirements for Boat Rentals

EFFECTIVE 9 May 2019

The Tennessee General Assembly passed an amendment to TCA Title 69, Chapter 9, that “requires a marina, livery, or other rental operation to provide motorboat orientation to a renter before hiring, leasing, or renting a motorboat to the renter.”  The Companion bill was assigned Public Chapter Number 267.

In order to meet this requirement, persons renting a boat from Gear To Go must complete the following prior to being issued a power boat:

Go to rentalboatsafety.com/power-boats and watch the four videos found on the top right:

  • Introduction
  • Negligent Operation
  • Life Jackets
  • Children on Board

After you have watched all four videos, take the assessment test.

Print and complete the appropriate checklist and bring a copy of it to Gear To Go (they are required to obtain a copy and maintain it in their records.)


EXEMPTIONS:

·         Non-motorized vessel rentals.

·        Tennessee residents who have successfully completed a monitored National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) exam and hold the TWRA issued wallet certification card.

·         Any out of state visitor you holds a NASBLA approved boating safety education certification.

·         Any person who holds a United States Coast Guard operator license.

·         Any person born on or before January 1, 1989.

If you aren’t sure if your certification is NASBLA approved, please visit their website at NASBLA.org.
