Our Story

JT’s Boat Rentals was created at the end of 2001 and opened for business in March of 2002 at Hidden Cove Park and we offered Paddle Boats, Kayaks, canoes, PWC, Pontoon Boat Rentals and Ski Boat Rentals, we had the park store which offer so many things for campers and picnics.

JT's Boat Rentals and park store started operations in spring of 2002. JT's Concessionaire contract with The Colony was for the food, beverage and boat rentals for the entire park, fulfilling the city's contract with the US Army Corps of Engineers. JT's submitted initial plans for 50 boat slips, miniature golf, arcade center and enlarging the store (we were told not to call it a marina), but our plans were quickly denied (via the Parks & Rec. Director Pam Nelson), to find that they had bids out for a marina. A portion of the park operations were privatized by the city in January 2005 and leased from The Colony by a marina operator with $250,000 due at signing, Lease Agreement. The City of the The Colony (via the Parks & Rec. Director Pam Nelson) told JT's the city and marina operators would honor our contract when the marina operators started construction. JT's designed the layout of the current ship store. We were prepared to stock and operate the ship store/gas docks, have 30 motor boats, and 4 party boats. We endured vandalism, jet ski theft, mowing of the lawn late Saturday mornings with our customers there, gas tanks taken off boats and scattered in the parking lot, etc. In the fall of 2008 the new marina operator finally paid The City of The Colony $250,000 and then The Colony City Council cancelled JT's Concessionaire Contract the next week after 7 years with 9 years remaining on JT's contract. JT's was then forced to close our park store and boat rentals in Hidden Cove Park.

In 2009 we moved over to Eagle Point Marina and recreated our business plan to do only boat charters and in the spring of 2016 Sam’s Dock purchased our 2 of our vessels, Toni and I agreed to stay on for the remainder of the season to make a smooth transfer for the customers. Sam’s Dock purchased 2 of our vessels not our business, Toni and I wanted to retired. Captain Joe is contining to do maketing, we created a new name DFW Party Boats here we will list in 1 websites all of the boat rental companies in the DFW area, Please Support Us!
