However, if you’re planning to jet ski with a group of friends with multiple jet skis then a reservation is important.

If it’s a trip returned due to inclement weather and is under 45 minutes, then your ride can be rescheduled for a later date. If the time extends 45 minutes then it will be counted as a full ride and no rescheduling or refunds will be allowed/
