House boats

[Drew]

Does anybody have any information on used houseboats for sale. We spend a lot if time on both rainy and Kab each summer and are toying around with the idea of buying our own houseboat.

Take a ride out to Rainy Lake Houseboats and talk to Tom Dougherty. He may know some people who are trying to sell houseboats. They have private slips in back where people pay to leave their own houseboats, usually around 8-10 back there.

I was thinking about getting a groups of guys together this summer and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for houseboats on Rainy. I pulled up the Rainy Lake Houseboats website and checked it over. It looks really good just curious if anyone elsse has any other recomendations for a houseboat outing?

deepdiver,

There are two places to rent houseboats from on rainy, Rainy Lake Houseboats, and Northernaire houseboats. Both places have owners who will accomodate your needs and do what it takes to make your trip pleasant and memorable. Fish and Fowl will know a little more about Rainy Lake's boats than I do. I beleive most of them are inboards and they have a wide variety of sizes to accomodate your group. Northernaire's boats range from a 32 footer to the 55'x18' aurora. All Northernaire's boats run 70 horse evinrudes. The princess series runs four strokers as does the aurora. The rest run two strokers, but are quiet underneath the motor covers. Check our their website to find out more. You can't go wrong with either company.

A houseboat is a great way to see Rainy and all it has to offer. As T-L said, both companies have great accomodations for their customers. Their websites should have all the info you'll need to know, just gotta pick a few days and hope the weather cooperates.
