'''Funky's Rentals''', also called the '''Rental Shop''',<ref>{{cite|author=Owsen, Dan, Kent Miller, and Paul Shinoda|title=''Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!'' Player's Guide|page=8|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=1996|quote=Funky is in business with his own Rental Shop!}}</ref> is a [[List of locations|location]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. It is a rental garage owned by [[Funky Kong]] on the [[Northern Kremisphere]] world map. Funky builds and leases his own watercraft here for the [[Kong]]s to borrow. Funky's Rentals is the first place visited by [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]], and Funky allows her to borrow his [[Motor Boat]] in addition to giving her [[Kiddy Kong]] to babysit. Every time Funky's Rental is visited, the player can use a menu to either select which vehicle they want to rent or to exit the building. Besides the Motor Boat, a few additional vehicles can be created and rented when returning with the necessary items: the [[Hover Craft]] requires the [[patch (item)|patch]]; the [[Turbo Ski]] requires both [[ski]]s; and the [[Gyrocopter]] requires every [[DK Coin]].


In the [[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|remake]], the player characters can obtain a [[Banana Bird]] by clearing every [[Funky's Rentals (minigame)|minigame challenge]], and the "Hire boat" option allows them to walk over to the vehicle they want to use.
Located in the southern end of the [[Northern Kremisphere]], Funky's Rentals is one of the first stops that Dixie Kong will make on her journey, as she will need a way to reach [[Lake Orangatanga]]. When Dixie first stops in at Funky's Rentals, Funky will agree to let her borrow his [[Motor Boat]], in exchange for babysitting Kiddy, whom he will dump in her lap.

After defeating [[Arich]] in [[Kremwood Forest]], the giant spider will drop a [[Patch (item)|Patch]]. If [[Kong]]s bring the Patch to Funky, he can use it to patch up his [[Hover Craft]], and let the Kongs use it to explore more areas of the Northern Kremisphere, for it is capable of driving over rocks.

Once the Kongs beat the bosses of [[Cotton-Top Cove]] and [[Mekanos]], they'll acquire two [[Ski]]s, one from each boss. By bringing these skis to Funky, he will use them to build the [[Turbo Ski]], which can travel up waterfalls.

In the [[Game Boy Advance]] [[remake]] of the game, Funky Kong also houses a caged [[Banana Bird]] at Funky's Rentals. In order to earn it, the Kongs must beat Funky's four new challenges: Destroy, Disarm, Protect and Race. The only challenge available at the start is the first one; more become available as Funky builds more vehicles.
 
==Game Boy Advance Minigames==
===Destroy===
The Kongs must destroy ten [[Kremling]] boats before getting to the goal.
 
===Disarm===
The Kongs must steal four mines from the Kremling base and take them to theirs.
 
===Protect===
[[File:DKC3GBAFunky%27sRentalsProtect.png|thumb|200px|right|The Protect minigame]]
Kremlings come from four angles, and they try to steal different Kongs ([[Cranky Kong|Cranky]], [[Donkey Kong|Donkey]], [[Lanky Kong|Lanky]], [[Tiny Kong|Tiny]], [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]], [[Chunky Kong|Chunky]], [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]], [[Funky Kong|Funky]] and [[Candy Kong|Candy]]) and take them to their bases. Dixie and/or Kiddy must shoot down the Kremling boats before they can take the other Kongs away. If there is at least one Kong left in the water after two minutes have passed, the challenge is considered won.
 
===Race===
The Kongs must race some Kremlings in their boat. The course is a circle, and there are three laps.
 
==Trivia==
* The four minigames in the GBA version are structured similar to ''{{wp|Cobra Triangle}}'', an NES game also made by Rare.
