Vintage Style, Electric Ease
This fleet of meticulously maintained and rare classic fiberglass runabout boats from the jet-age era (1958-1963), have been made available for everyone to enjoy and take out on the beautiful waterways of Saugatuck/Douglas. With fanciful fins and headlights, retro cool colors and chrome details, they’ve kept their vintage style but retro-fitted them with electric motors. They’re quiet and environmentally friendly, allowing for conversation and to enjoy the fresh air and beauty of Michigan.
Retro Boat Rentals also offers pontoon boat rentals, as well as Donut Boats and Duffy Boats, that are electric as well, for larger groups. All of this can be found at The Old Boat House, a waterfront bar and restaurant along the Kalamazoo River. Whether you’re renting a boat, or just want to enjoy their beautiful patio, come experience this unique setting along the waterfront in Saugatuck.

The staff was so fun and easy going! They did an excellent job at giving directions and even offer to take a picture of everyone in the boat! It was great for us and the kids too! We will do this again!

We had a great time on the Donut Boat. The staff at Retro Boat were very friendly and accommodating. The boat was clean and the scenery beautiful. An awesome way to spend the day on the water!

This is the most fun I had all summer! Retro boats are a great way to chill and discover Saugatuck via the water. Easy to drive and just a blast. Hook up some great tunes to one of their speakers and you're are all set. The donut boats are great for larger groups.

We had a fantastic evening renting a donut boat from 7-9 pm. It was a perfect time to enjoy views of the lake, homes, and sunset! It was nice to bring our own snacks on board. I highly recommend the experience!
