Step aboard our 2025 Yamaha AR250—a twin-engine, 400 HP jet boat engineered for high-end performance, total safety, and maximum comfort. Whether you want to anchor at the world-famous Boca Grande sandbar, dock at a lively waterfront restaurant, spot dolphins and manatees, or cruise the coast, this vessel delivers the ultimate Southwest Florida boating experience.
Why You’ll Love the Yamaha AR250
Propeller-Free Safety: Twin jet drives mean no exposed props—creating a safe, stress-free environment for kids playing around the massive integrated swim platform.
Shallow-Draft Capability: Effortlessly glide into skinny sandbars, secluded coves, and shallow beach anchorages that traditional propeller boats can't reach.
Pre-Flight Confidence: Enjoy a comprehensive, 30- to 60-minute hands-on orientation before departure so you feel completely in command before leaving the dock.
Delivery, Prep and Maintenance Fee: $100 (Paid in person at check-in; separate from your online booking payment).
What this fee covers:
Convenient Launch and Staging: Direct delivery and staging at Laishley Park Boat Ramp or Fisherman’s Village.
Fuel Logistics: Post-rental transport and refueling at Fisherman’s Village Marina.
Salt-Water Care: Comprehensive cleaning and dual-engine Salt-Away freshwater flushes after every run to keep the vessel in top condition.
Included Gear: Provision of a Yeti cooler and all required USCG-approved safety equipment and life jackets.
Watersports Package: Onboard water skis, floaties, tube, and towlines (when requested).
