Frequently Asked Questions

Does a guide have to come ?

Yes. All of our services include a Licensed Guide. Our licensed guides are on their own jet ski, while you drive another. Our Licensed Guides will escort you on routes that are designed to provide optimal views of Tampa Bay without you needing to know where to go. This does not mean you are not able to rip around freestyle, our Guide simply leads you out to the best area of the water to do so.

How fast can I go?

Our SeaDoos reach between 45-50 MPH depending on how you ride. Go as fast or as slow as you want. We only ask that you stay within sight of our Professional Guide. While you will be following a guide you will have more room to operate the ski at a comfortable speed for you.
