These are the practical details that matter across the rental fleet. Product-specific requirements are confirmed in the live calendar and during check-in.

How do I choose the right Mission Bay rental?
Choose Jet Skis for speed, pontoons for relaxed groups, ski boats for a sportier private cruise, kayaks or paddleboards for low-barrier paddling, sailboats for wind-powered exploring, and Lily Pads or water trampolines for floating group fun.
Where do rentals check in and how early should I arrive?

What do I need to bring?
Bring a government-issued photo ID and a credit card for check-in. Powered-equipment renters must be 21 or older, and each operator must be 18 or older and complete the required preparation and safety process.
What is included and what fees apply?
