Jet Car Rentals in Miami
A jet car is a two-seat watercraft built to look like a sports car: you sit in the cockpit, steer with a wheel and cruise Biscayne Bay at speed with the skyline behind you. In Miami it is booked as a session with its own operator, before, during or after a yacht charter, and quoted by the team for your riders and timing.
What a jet car is
A jet car is a personal watercraft with a car body: a cockpit for a driver and a passenger, a steering wheel and pedals, and a jet drive underneath. It is quieter and drier than a jet ski and photographs like a supercar on the water, which is why it is a favourite for birthdays, proposals and content. It is a vessel under Florida law, so the same boating rules apply. The other activities are on Miami water sports.
How it fits the charter
The session runs with the jet car operator, who meets you at their dock or brings the car to an agreed spot, gives the briefing and sets the route. Some groups ride before boarding the yacht, some meet the car at the sandbar, and some finish the day with it. The team books both so the times line up and nobody waits at the wrong dock.
Who can drive
Florida law requires anyone born on or after 1 January 1988 to carry a Boating Safety Education ID card, or a temporary certificate from a short test, to operate a vessel of 10 horsepower or more, and the operator checks it before the ride. The operator sets the minimum age and asks for ID; passengers ride with a life jacket on. Tell the team who will drive and who will ride when you ask for the quote, and the operator confirms the rules for your group.
Sessions and price
Jet car sessions are sold by the operator in set lengths and quoted for your date, the number of cars and the meeting point, with the briefing included. Most sessions run in daylight on calm water; wind or storms move the time. For a jet ski instead, priced in the catalogue, see jet ski rentals in Miami.
Planning the day
Pair the jet car with a day or afternoon charter, so there is light and time for both, and bring a photographer for the shots. Choose the boat on every yacht rental in Miami, then ask for the jet car with it.
