Washington State Boat Rental Agreement

Next, you get to select the payment methods you prefer. You can choose cash, debit card, and check, among others.
You also state if there will be a penalty for cancellation or late return. One of the problems boat owners encounter with renters is late return, so a late return penalty will shield you against this.
