Jet Ski Rentals

For our Lake Norman jet ski rentals, we put you on the latest and greatest in PWC technology–brand new 2015 and 2016 Seadoo Sparks. Seadoo Sparks have brought the fun back into jet skiing. Jet skis, in general, have gotten far too big and heavy–thus limiting the “playfulness” and guzzling gas at alarming rates. Our Seadoo Sparks are light and stable, maximizing the horsepower-to-weight ratio for an unmatched get-up-and-go feeling. They are also the most fuel-efficient PWCs on the market–greatly minimizing your gas cost on your rental.
