What is the age requirement to rent a jetski?

You must be at least 21 years old, have a valid drivers license to rent one of our watercrafts. 

How Many People Can Ride at Once?

Each of our JetSkis comfortably seat 2 Adults. While they are rated for up to 3 persons, the only acceptable situation is if it is 1 adult and 2 small children. If a person is over 350lbs they are limited to riding a JetSki by themselves or with 1 child. We do not permit 3 adults to ride on our watercraft at the same time. 3 Adults on one jet ski makes the watercraft extremely unstable and easily flipped over. If a jet ski is flipped over it can result in damage to watercraft and can pose life threatening risks to persons operating/riding the watercraft.

The total weight capacity for the 2016 Yamaha V1 Sport and the 2017 Yamaha  VX is 530lbs.
