Children are aged 5-14 years inclusive. Children must be accompanied by an adult to ride the Jet boat. Infants are aged 2-4 years and Jet boat for free with an accompanying adult. There must be one adult for every infant booked. Children under the age of 2 years are unable to ride KJet.
There is no height restriction to ride KJet. However, children must be able to fit into one of our life jackets.
Because we don’t have height or weight restrictions, the decision on whether the child can sit independently or sit on a guardians lap is subject to KJet staff discretion at the time of check-in. When sitting on a guardian’s lap, the guardians arms must be wrapped around the child, holding on to the handrail to help secure the child during the trip especially when the boat spins. The guardian has more control seated like this as opposed to the child sitting beside other passengers where there is more chance of movement during spins.
As well as the safety aspect, small children can see more during the trip in the elevated position of sitting on a knee.
