What is a jet ski?
Jet Ski is the brand name of Personal WaterCraft (PWC) manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd.. The name, however, has become a genericized trademark for any type of personal watercraft. Since the riding of jet skis has evolved through the 90s, other companies like Yamaha, Bombardier and Honda have joined the sport to make it into a worldwide sport in both racing and freestyle. A Jet Ski is propelled by jets of water, not props. In Maui, you?ll be riding on one of the most powerful jet skis made today ? the Honda Aquatrax.To ride, attach the engine shut-off clip to your life-vest before you start your jet ski. Next, place both your hands on the handlebars and slowly squeeze the throttle with your first two fingers. While you are in close proximity to the shore or dock, keep your speed at trolling, the lowest level. Once away from the dock, have fun, but be safe. Stay inside the buoys while you ride and avoid other jet skiers and boats. Be sure to stay aware of your surroundings at all times when you are riding your jet ski.
Is it safe to ride?
You CAN be injured by riding a jet ski. Jet skis are relatively safe, but because they are so much fun, people tend to forget their safety zone and sometimes collide with other skis or boats. Pacific Jet Sports (MAUI JET SKI) mandates keeping at least 300 feet apart from the nearest jet ski or boat , be aware of your surroundings ? always look right and left as you ride ? and most importantly, be safe & have fun! YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR INJURIES AND DAMAGE TO YOUR JET SKI RENTAL.
Riding 2 on 1 jet ski
Sometimes riders want to add a friend or child on the back of their jet ski. Our skis are two rider friendly, and it?s a great way to share the fun. Be sure to add additional riders to your reservation when booking to take advantage of this feature. Also, While it?s great to ride two on one ski, we recommend two adults rent two skis for maximum extreme fun!
What if I have never ridden a jet ski before?
No worries! ? our friendly and professional staff instruct you on all safe riding principles before you get in the ocean. If you can walk and chew gum, you can ride a jet ski!
Is parking available?
Ample parking at Hanakoa?o Beach Park (Canoe Beach) in Lahaina or you can pay $5 Valet parking at the Hyatt Regency Maui or Whalers Village Shopping Center.
What is the minimum age to ride a jet ski?
You must be at least 16 years old (drivers license is not required) to drive our jet skis. There is NO minimum age to be a passenger, BUT they must be at least 32 inches in height to be able to be seated appropriately. The parents are required to sign the liability waiver and vouch for the rider?s age.
Where exactly is the jet ski riding area?
We ride in the South end of Kaanapali beach in a protective cove. The area is located about a quarter mile offshore away from swimmers, snorkelers and divers. From the Jet Ski Island ?Dock? you can go about a quarter mile to open ocean towards Lanai, and Molokai.
What if I am not the best swimmer?
No problem. We provide all riders (passengers too) with properly fitting life jackets. Should for any reason you or your passenger fall off, the life jacket will ensure you will float until you re-board your jet ski.
Do you rent to physically challenged riders?
Yes. We have had years of experience taking blind and paraplegic riders! We can help peole with specail needs in and out of the boat and our instructors will take them on the jet ski. There is a walkway from the parking area behind the Hyatt directly behind our Red Umbrella and we offer a place to leave wheelchairs. We have Handicapped parking. We welcome any and all people
Where do we meet to go jet skiing?
We meet at the Red Umbrella on Kaanapali Beach fronting the Hyatt Regency Maui. Please see the map provided.
What do I wear?
Wear a bathing suit or surf shorts. Don?t worry about wearing/bringing reef booties, flip-flops of the likes, we ride barefoot. It is a good idea to bring a towel and sunscreen with you.
How many people can fit on our Aquatrax?
Up to three people (weighing no more than 450 lbs combined). Keep in mind though the closer you get to the machines weight limit, the less stable the jet ski becomes. Overall performance goes down even at 400 lbs.
What happens if I fall off my jet ski while riding?
Other than getting wet, that?s about it! Relax, the water temperature is roughly 80 degrees year round. Just know that you are connected to your jet ski at all times with an emergency cut off switch. If you should fall off your running jet ski for any reason, the cut off switch will immediately kill the machine and your jet ski will not leave you behind!. You would then simply re-board the jet ski from the rear of the machine and reboard as stated from our jet ski instructors briefing prior to your rental. Once aboard, insert key, restart your machine and away you go!
