David,
A common blank to use for this exact purpose is one of the following Rain Shadow blanks:

These are solid fiberglass blanks with a soft tip and work very very well for the purpose listed above. Another very nice feature of these rods for a party boat is that they are virtually unbreakable.

Good luck
