Palmetto Pirates Boat Rental

Tritoon rentals on Lake Keowee and Lake Jocassee

The view from the back deck of a tritoon, tan bench seats framing calm blue water and a wooded point on Lake Keowee.
$600 Cash
$625 Card

Eight hours on the water, fuel included, charged once.

Most rental outfits take a deposit when you arrive, bill you for fuel when you get back, then add a charge for every hour over. We don’t. You pay one price, one time, and the day is yours.

Want to pull a tube? Add one for $25. When you pay cash, it pays for itself!

Two lakes

Pick your water

Keowee and Jocassee sit side by side in the foothills, and they could hardly be more different. Choose the day you want and we’ll put you on the right lake.

Lake Keowee

Broad, bright water with room to roam. Pull into a cove, drop anchor, and swim off the back while the kids take over the deck.

Lake Jocassee

Clear, deep water held between mountain walls, with waterfalls that can only be reached by boat. Start early and plan around the afternoon storms.

Local knowledge

Before you head out

  1. What to bring

    Sunscreen, towels, swimsuits, and a cooler packed with food and drinks for the whole day. Shoes that can get wet make boarding easier, and a light layer helps on the ride back.

  2. Best time of day

    Early. Mornings are calm, the coves are quiet, and you have the light before the crowds. On Jocassee, storms often build between noon and three. They usually pass quickly: dock or beach the boat, wait it out, then head back out.

  3. How the launches work

    Keowee trips start at Crowe Creek access. Jocassee trips start at Devils Fork State Park, which charges for parking and admission; paying online before you go saves a wait at the gate on busy days. When you call, we’ll settle the launch and the time and talk through the forecast with you.

If the weather turns

We watch the forecast and will talk it through with you before your trip. If a thunderstorm cuts your day short, give us a call and we’ll work something out for another day, depending on how much of your day you got.
