Jet boat rental at WDW resorts

We love boats and jet-ski%26#39;s and plan on hiring out at a wdw resort. Can you hire on the day or do you need to pre book. Also, does anyone have any info on the cost involved? thanks.

You might just find that you carnt now just walk into a hire shop and hire one.



There has been so many realy bad accidents with jet skies i belive they have placed restrictions on hire.



I do belive you do now have to prove that you are a competent person with some paperwork /qulification

Hello pinkdiamond,





We have always been able to walk up and grab a boat however I would check at the dock of your resort after arrival and check on how busy they are during your visit. A Canopy which fits 8 people is $27.00 for half hour, Pontoon $42.00. SeaRaycers are $24.00 for half hour.




I typed ';marina'; in to the search function at www.waltdisneyworld.com and found that you can call (407) 939-0754 for information.





Marina Rentals



Choose from a fleet of motorized and non-motorized craft that are available for rent. Sea Raycer by Sea Ray庐 boats, sailboats, SunTRACKER pontoon boats, Boston Whaler Montauk boats*, pedal boats, kayaks and canoes are some of the items available at various Walt Disney World庐 Resort hotels.

* *Boston Whaler Montauk boats currently not available at Downtown Disney庐 Area, where canopy boats may be rented instead.




Just from what I saw, a canopy or pontoon looks best. The racer, by Searay, idles at best. Nothing goes faster than putt putt. At least have some shade!




The rentals are by the half hour. I don%26#39;t think you can book the regular rentals ahead of time, only the rentals that include a driver. I%26#39;ve never seen the marinas totally empty even on really busy days. There are a limited number of canopy and pontoon boats though, so if they don%26#39;t have one at the first resort you go to, hop on the monorail and try another. Our family has found it to be more economical to rent one canopy boat instead of two or three of the smaller boats, and the canopy boats go plenty fast enough.
