I put out about 25 bones a day on board only rental. If you want the rig too,
you'll pay about $35/day. I'm sure you can do a week long rental that would
bring the per/day price down but then you wouldn't get a variety of boards to
test out.

Sailboard Warehouse: tiga, seatrend, bailey ($26/day)
Big Winds: HiTec, Mistral, clam sandwitch ($25/day)
Hot Sails Maui: logosz (free)
Dill: Dill, CFX (boards only, no rigs)($25/day)

The hot ticket on demos is "make a reservation". During the week you can bop
around and find something but plan ahead and pick out what you want to demo and
reserve it in advance. On the weekends it is almost impossible to find a demo
without a reservation.

hope thats helpful

see ya on the beach
