Phenomenal experience on Saturday. Thanks for making the surprise 1 hour on your 2 Yamaha waverunners, such an amazing experience. for all of us!!!
Great value for money too and good idea that charges are based on per jet-ski rather than per person.
Not something I could afford to do regularly, but definitely for a special occasion. Thanks so much!
