Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a boating licence?

No licence is required. The driver must be 19 years of age or older. Youth aged 6 and up can ride as passengers with a parent or guardian's signature.

What should I bring?

Just bring a valid government-issued photo ID and your phone. Our jet skis are equipped with Bluetooth audio. Life jackets are provided for all riders.

Is there a damage deposit?

No charge — a $1,000 pre-authorization hold is placed on your credit card per jet ski. This is a temporary authorization, not a payment, and it's released automatically upon return.

What is your refund and cancellation policy?

Cancellations made more than 48 hours in advance receive a full refund. Cancellations within 48 hours can be rescheduled for any available date within 30 days. Manually created reservations must be paid no later than 7 days before the scheduled rental. Reservations that remain unpaid at that time may be automatically cancelled and the time slot released for other guests.

Is fuel included?

You're only billed for actual usage, at the current marina per-litre pump price.

What happens if the weather is bad?

If weather conditions are deemed unsafe — including high winds, lightning, or rough water — we will cancel your rental at no charge and reschedule for the next available date.

Do I need experience to operate a jet ski?

No prior experience necessary. All guests receive a comprehensive safety briefing covering operation, safety protocols, and local lake conditions. Life jackets are provided for all riders.
