Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE MACHINE

3-cylinder TR‑1 Yamaha engine

The EX Sport is powered by a 3-cylinder, 4-stroke TR‑1 Yamaha Marine engine, a compact high-rev unit that defines the model’s lively character on the water.

THE TERMS

Clear rental rules and renter responsibility

Renters must be at least 21 with a valid driver’s license; those born after January 1, 1989 need to show a completed boater’s safety course. The renter is fully responsible for personal and property damage and must follow the rental contract.

THE LOGISTICS

Pickup, fuel and fee policies

Pick up begins at 9:00 a.m. with return at 4:00 p.m.; units are delivered full of gas and must be returned full of 91‑octane or the renter will be charged a $25 fill fee plus gas at $7.00 per gallon. Late returns incur $25 per 15-minute fees, and local delivery starts at a $25 minimum (additional rates apply up to 25 miles).

What the day feels like

What it feels like to rent an EX Sport Jetski

The EX Sport Jetski delivers short, punchy performance for quick runs across Minocqua’s lakes: a playful, responsive platform built around Yamaha’s TR‑1 three-cylinder powerplant, available for day trips or multi-day rentals through the local operator.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this rental suits—and who should think twice.

1
Solo thrill-seekersWell suited if you’re 21 or older, hold a valid driver’s license, and want a nimble, high-revaying personal watercraft; be prepared to accept full responsibility for safe operation and any damages.
2
Weekend or multi-day rentersA good match: the EX Sport is available for 1–14 day rentals, letting you plan short trips or a longer lakeside stint—just note booking and damage-deposit requirements.
3
Families and groupsAppropriate for adults who meet the rental conditions; the primary renter must be 21+, and you should account for deposit, fuel policies, and the operator’s liability terms before handing younger riders or inexperienced operators the controls.
4
First-time rentersPossible but conditional: if you meet the age/license rules and, where applicable, have completed the boater’s safety course, be aware the company does not offer insurance and you will be financially responsible for any damage.
