The family has spoken. A day on the water and some Jet Ski fun is what they want. Riding the waves, exploring the coves and nooks. Racing or taking unique pictures while you idle, it’s all there on a jet ski. So, let’s go grab them and hit the water! Well, it’s not quite that easy.

There are some important things to remember before you rent a jet ski. First of all, who is going to be operating the jet ski? State laws vary, but for most people born after January 1, 1989, a boater’s license exam will be required to operate the jet ski. Waterplay USA offers these exams for a nominal fee. In about 10 minutes you can be driving that jet ski legally. So, take the time to get familiar with the laws and the ways to operate the jet ski and then go and have some fun!

The next thing you need to consider is the seat size. Are you going alone? Do you have a rider or two you want to take along? Jet skis come with up to three seats, perfect for an adult and a couple of children. But you don’t want to pay that extra price if you are going solo, right? Find the right jet ski seat size for your outing. You can save some money by getting the right jet ski.

A must when it comes to renting a jet ski is knowing the gas policy. Is gas included in the price of the rental? Do you have to supply your own gas for the jet ski? Or, is it filled with gas at the beginning and you top it off when you are done? To avoid confusion, be sure to be clear on the rental policy before you rent a jet ski.

The last thing you need to know is whether or not the company requires a hold for a rental. What is a hold? A hold is like a deposit. It assures the company that their equipment will be returned safely. The company ‘freezes’ a certain amount on your credit or debit card. This amount is not deducted, but is not available for use until the hold is taken off of your card. For this reason, many people choose to use a credit card so they can have access to their funds faster. A hold is a common thing for larger ticket items like jet skis. It is the equivalent of a deposit on a rental car.

When you have researched to policies, gotten your temporary boater’s license and figured out the lingo for renting your jet ski, all that is left is to rent it. Waterplay USA offers jet ski rentals by the hour or by the day. Come and find the perfect jet ski for you and your family. Then, head off to the water for a day of splashing good fun in the sunshine state.
