Current Events > Thinking about renting out my kayaks... what's the legal process?

(+) Yeah! (+)

So we have 2 kayaks, paddles, pfds, etc.
3 lakes just in our city, 3 state parks within an hour. Just lots of places around.
I would meet them at their desired location.

Anyway, they sold out hella bad last year, and everything seems to be selling out quickly.

was thinking about renting them out. Rate could be like $25/hr, $100/day(per kayak)
... something like that.

Can I just write up a waiver for liability, and then Im good to go?

Good talk.

I mean who knows I assume the liability issues are significant. I worked for a rich dude doing maintenance and construction at his b and b and I know he had to pay a lot more in insurance to cover his ass when he started renting e bikes.

Also id be worried about assholes damaging or stealing my kayaks.

Request ID and payment up front and enjoy

Edit: I guess a waiver that says you accept no responsibility and that the kayak appears to be in working order is good. You can't sign away your liabilities in my state, so we lack some fun stuff

Looks like I might need insurance, $400-1k gets you 1m in liability insurance generally
