Policies:
A damage deposit of $500 per personal watercraft (PWC) is required. This deposit is only allowed on a credit card of the reservation holder and may not be split onto two cards.
Time-stamped photos and videos of the rented PWC should be taken by all parties prior to departure. This confirms the condition of the jet ski at the start of your rental and is intended to protect everyone. The renter is responsible for all repair costs due to damage in addition to lost revenue for each day the PWC is not able to be rented.
The reservation holder must be present during the check in and check out of the rental period.
We have a 48 hour cancellation policy. If you must cancel your reservation and we are notified at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled meet time, we will refund your payment less 15% of the total rental cost. If you cancel for any reason and we are notified less than 48 hours prior to your scheduled meet time, we cannot refund any portion of the payment. All sales inside 48 hours are final and non-refundable.
You may reschedule for another day or time if we are notified at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled meet time. In the event of unfavorable weather, you may reschedule the day of (at our discretion).
