Outing Highlights

THE FLEET

Yamaha VX/EX Deluxe four-stroke personal watercraft

Riders take the lake on Yamaha VX/EX Deluxe personal watercraft — modern, four-stroke machines offered directly from the operator for short or extended blocks of time.

THE OPERATOR

A long‑running, family-run rental on Lake Minnetonka

Bay Rentals MN is a small, family-run business and the oldest jet ski rental company on Lake Minnetonka; they emphasize a local, beach-based experience built over 23 years of operation.

THE BEACH

Beachfront launch, park and picnic spot

This is the only local rental with a dedicated beachfront picnic location, and renters can also add paddle boards or kayaks to extend a day on the water beyond the jet ski.

What the day feels like

What the outing feels like

From a sheltered beachfront you climb aboard a Yamaha VX/EX Deluxe, receive life jackets and operating instructions, then cut across Lake Minnetonka’s open water for whatever stretch you reserve — a tight 1‑hour burst, a half‑day spin, or a longer 8‑hour day with time back at the picnic spot and optional paddling on SUPs or kayaks.
