We are going to Bon for the first time in February for two weeks. Anyone know if you can be your own captain of a small boat with outboard for fishing and snorkeling? How about the cost?

Bonnie
I thought I posted this before. Toucan Diving at the Plaza Resort has "boston whalers" with outboard motors for half or full day rental. I don't know about prices but there's a bit of information on their website

Good luck

bonnie, hope to see you at gibi's in february...we''ll be arriving feb. 9 and plan on having dinner there on the 10th

small boat rentals at Plaza... $50 half day, $75 for full day and includes gas/oil... each whaler is equipped with a radio... no scuba allowed

Thanks to all for your help with the small boat rental info. We're arriving Jan. 26 for our FIRST Bonaire visit. We snorkel and fish (mostly catch-and-release), and we can't wait to get out of this Michigan winter gloom.
Still looking for a deal to keep a small boat w/outboard for two weeks at our cottage rental. Can't afford the daily rate at those prices, and Barry has to get those fish at the crack of dawn - he can't wait until 9 am for the rental. I hope we can find a local resident and make a deal.
