A Floating Party in a Box: Renting the STAR Jam Pad on BC Waterways.
The STAR Jam Pad is an inflatable ‘dock in a box’ built on the same technology as STAR SUP boards: a square 8' x 8' platform with a central cooler-storage well that converts quiet water into a compact floating gathering space. The pad supports up to 1,000 pounds, comes with two paddles, two PFDs and an anchor, and is rented as a two-day package; operators require a signed waiver from all participants and a $300 security deposit.

What the day feels like
What it feels like to rent the Jam Pad
The Jam Pad is a portable, stable platform that turns calm water into a floating gathering spot: set it up, lower your cooler into the central storage well, push off with the supplied paddles and anchor in place, and spend a two-day rental period lounging, swimming off the edges and socializing within the pad's 8' x 8' footprint. The package includes two PFDs and an anchor; additional lifejackets are available for an extra fee.
