I was just wondering if i rent a row boat can i bring my own trolling motor and hook it up to the back of the boat? I do this often in the Chicago Forest Preserve.
Hi Joe – Yes you can rent a row boat and use your own trolling motor.
Do you have any boat rentals that I could put a 10 hp antique outboard on it? If so, what would the rental be?
Thank you,Jim
Hi Jim,
You can use your own motor on our Row Boats. The pricing for the Row Boat Rental can be found on this page http://shabbonalake.com/index.php/boat-rental-rates

Can we bring along our 5 year old? Thanks.
Yes you can bring your 5 year old. Kids 2 and under require parents to provide a life jacket. For kids over 2 we have life jackets on site.
How big is the motor on the pontoon that seats 11, and do i have to rent life jackets for all 11 people, and is gas included with the initial price? thanks
Motor is a 10hp. Life jackets and gas are included in the rental fee.
What is the pound thrust of your trolling motors for rent? Thanks
Also, am I allowed to bring an extra marine battery?
If you are talking about an extra battery for the trolling motors we rent, we do provide batteries and have extras on hand. If you do bring your own battery, you need to have a battery box.
