Please cancel 24 hours prior to the WaveRunner rental start time for a full refund. If the rental is cut short due to inclement weather or WaveRunner issues we will issue a raincheck that can be used for a different rental date and time. If the trip is canceled by Boogies Watersports you will be issued a full refund minus the ticket fee if booked online.
Once you leave the docks there are no refunds or rain checks so please make sure the weather will be good for the duration of your trip. If a storm comes through while you are out we ask if it is lightning to return back to the docks for your safety. If it is a light rain you can stay out. Once the storm blows through you can take your WaveRunner back out but we will not extend your time while you are at the docks. If you do not use all your time we will give you your slip back and you can use your remaining time on a different day.
