Thunder Jet Boat requires all passengers to arrive 30 minutes prior to their departure time. During this time you will check-in, sign our Assumption of Risk form, get dressed in ponchos and life jackets and listen to the safety briefing.
If you are running late, please contact and notify us as we may have to accommodate you on a later ride.
If you are unable to make your ride or miss your ride, we will reschedule you to our next available ride for an extra fee of $25 per person.
The only restriction is that all children must be over 120cm. There are no age restrictions however we suggest a minimum of 5 years. All passengers need to be able to reach the handrails and hold on firmly. Passengers under the age of 18 must have an adult 18+ sign the Assumption of Risk form on their behalf.
As you will need to hold onto the handrails with both hands during spins, unless you have a head or chest-mounted GoPro, you cannot take cameras onboard as this could be a risk to yourself or others. Thunder Jet will not be responsible for the safety of your camera, phone or personal goods.
We do have a high-tech GoPro camera mounted to the front of the jet boat which records the highlights of your ride, capturing all the spins and stunts. The footage is available to purchase after your ride. Photos of your group in front of the Harbour Bridge and on the jet boat are also available.
No – you are more than welcome to come along on the day and hop on the next ride if there are spaces available. We do recommend booking for weekends, special event days and school holidays as we get very busy. However, bookings are strongly recommended for the Extreme Adrenaline Rush ride as it departs once daily at 12:30 pm.
