Boat Towing
San Francisco Bay Boat Rental and Marine Services LLC and Captain Tony (100 Ton Master) are fully licensed and Coast Guard approved to tow your vessel any place in the San Francisco Bay. Available towing vessels are the Kansas City, the 21 foot Boston Whaler, and the 21 foot Popeye.

We offer Commercial Boat Towing at competetive rates! The 21 foot Boston Whaler is capable of speeds of 40 knots for a fast response time (although we won't tow you at that speed)! Both the Kansas City and the 21 foot Boston Whaler are equipped with Sonar, Radar, and GPS!
Diving Services
San Francisco Bay Boat Rental and Marine Services LLC is proud to offer diving services and a boat to deliver the diver to your location! We know that when you need a diver it isn't always at a convenient location. We can bring the diver to you even if there is no land nearby (rope in the propeller, etc). We recently assisted a boat near Pac Bell Park who was taking on water, and our diver was able to put a dowel in the hole and stop the leak!
We also install and inspect Zinc and propellers, and can be your "eyes underwater" before purchasing a boat or after running aground. We know that many people like to have a diver inspect and replace their zinc in a timely fashion, and we have a fast response time to get a diver to your boat.
We offer underwater inspection service in and around the San Francisco Bay. Many people want underwater inspections in a timely fashion. We have a fast emergency response time for all underwater inspections. Most of our underwater inspections are dispatched by boat for an even faster response time!
We do light recovery for items dropped in the water. We recently recovered an expensive watch that a mariner dropped in the water at Oyster Point! We have over 10 years experience diving on boats in the SF Bay. Keep our number handy on your boat for quick reference (there isn't always internet access on the water)!
We recently dispatched our fastest boat with diver aboard to travel from Oyster Point in South San Francisco to Tiburon, Ca to assist a mariner whose Sea Ray (18 foot boat) was almost completely sunk! Our transit time was one and a half hours! The boat dispatched was the mighty 21 foot Boston Whaler (unsinkable) with E-Tech motor, GPS, and Radar!
Please keep our phone number on your vessel, 415-336-4765, in case you or someone you know needs emergency diver service for boats or recovery!

Special Expeditions
Engineers prepare for the 8 mile ride to the Dumbarton Bridge railway crossing on the 21 foot Boston Whaler. Core drilling team and engineers were delivered each day on a timely bases making the core sampling job a success for CTL Group and its clients.
San Francisco Bay Boat Rentals and Marine Services LLC made this 16 mile round trip as many as 3 times a day, in many diverse conditions, and often the Radar and GPS were used when conditions would not let us visually see the bridge!
The 17 foot Boston Whaler is a popular way to get to remote locations, such as the Newark Slough in South San Francisco Bay. The 21 foot Boston Whaler was hired by the CTL Group, a company from Chicago, to transport their core sampling crew and engineers out to the Dumbarton bridge.
The CTL Group preferred the Boston Whaler because of its speed, relability, and unsinkable reputation. The CTL Group also utilized our 8 foot inflatable raft, and the whole package was driven to the Newark Slough from our location at Oyster Point in South San Francisco. We were in the Newark Slough for a total of 3 days!
The tug boat company Marine Express also relied on San Francisco Bay Boat Rentals and Marine Services LLC and our 17 foot Boston Whaler to change the crew on its tug boat every 12 hours!

San Francisco Bay Photography
