Pontoon boat rental
Pontoons rent by the half day to groups who have never driven one. The briefing is part of the product.
NO MONTHLY FEE · 4.5% AT CHECKOUT · PAID BY YOUR CUSTOMER
A pontoon fleet turns twice a day in season, which puts fuel, a rinse, a condition check and a full safety briefing into the gap between two bookings. Capacity limits are legal rather than advisory, so the headcount on the reservation matters.
Weather cancels these more often than any other category on this list, and a slot cancelled at nine has to be back on sale by half past.
Eight pontoons, two locations, one in the workshop. Book against each model and see which one can tell you which pontoon the customer is getting.
The constraint in this category is the briefing and turnaround that fit between two half-day slots. Everything below is aimed at it.
Reservations land against individual units. Delivery and pickup runs come out of the addresses captured at booking, sequenced into one loop rather than a list of addresses in the order they were booked. Drops are confirmed with a photo and a timestamp. Returns are recorded against the unit that came back, and availability reopens once it is fit to go out.
The first picture below is a real Saturday rather than a drawing of one, with a good part of what the platform does sitting behind that one screen. It works the same way at whatever size you run, from a single van out of one location to a fleet across several. The second picture is that same morning taken apart into a single run.
Reading the map
The addresses come off the reservations. The run is built as one loop that turns right out of the depot and right back into it, so no road is driven twice and no stop is passed before its window opens.
Bodhisys charges no monthly fee. The platform takes 4.5%, added to each reservation and paid by your customer rather than by you.
The savings calculator puts that against what you pay today, including reseller commission and paid modules.
Bodhisys is rental operations software for companies that rent things, vehicles and experiences. It was built for rental inventory rather than adapted from a ticketing system, and it has been in market since 2023.
For pontoon rental companies it runs reservations, inventory across every location, routing, delivery confirmation, waivers and returns in one system. The category constraint it is aimed at is the briefing and turnaround that fit between two half-day slots.
There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.
Bodhisys is younger than FareHarbor and Peek Pro and has a smaller install base. An operator whose revenue is mostly timed tours, or who needs a long list of third-party integrations today, is better served by an incumbent.
There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.
Yes. Customers, future reservations and booking history migrate from FareHarbor, Peek Pro and Bike Rental Manager.
A tour flow sells a seat at a time. A rental flow has to capture what leaves, where it goes, when it comes back and who is responsible for it in between.
