In a bind.. Need help BAD!!!

SO its kind of a long story i'll try to make short. I just had my boat in the shop and apparently the cylinders and pistons are so chewed up they think the motor may stop working any minute. As if thats not bad enough I have my uncle and his tournament partner flying in from Arizona this Wed night for a week of fishing on the Delta and Clear Lake that we have had planned for many months now. They've already shipped all their gear, I've bought them their licenses and plane tickets are non-refundable. They've been wanting to come fish out here for years and this is the one time they can get out here.
Our plans are to fish the Delta Thursday and Saturday then fish clear lake Sunday and Monday. I've already got a campground reserved for Sunday night as well. Is there ANY way anyone out there would be willing to or know of anyone who would be willing to rent their boat to us for those days. I would obviously pay for all fuel and oil and then some for the fact that I'm using the boat. I'm not looking for a guide cuz I already know where I want to fish and cant afford full guide prices. I'd even be willing to pay for us to go out with someone (or on two different boats since there are 3 of us), but like I said I'm not looking for a guide just a way to get on the water. If anyone can help please, please, please let me know and I would be sooooo greatful. Thanks in advance!!

Scotty,
Its funny that you should mention RENTING a boat from some one. There is a guy on the Classifieds trying to "rent" his Ranger for like 185$ per day. I hope this helps you out a bit.

I'm not sure, but I think that classified is for down south. Too far for you. Try www.bassbarbarians.com in the Delta at Lundborg Landing. Says 10% off online reservation. This might work for ya. I'm not sure if they have one in Clear Lake also or if they will let you trailer it to Clear Lake. Good luck. D.B.COOPER 8)
