Frequently asked questions
I've never been on a boat, can I rent one?
Our 8 hp motorboats can be used without a license, they are very easy to use and accessible to everyone. We will give you all the information you need on the operation, safety and equipment necessary for a safe rental. In addition, according to Swiss law, boats can be driven from the age of 14 years and can be rented from 16 years. However, due to our company policy, we do not rent to anyone under the age of 18.
Are the boats safe? Do you have vests for the children as well?
Each boat has full safety equipment and life jackets for everyone and we have extra vests available for adults and children of all ages and sizes. We also check boats daily to make sure they meet all safety standards and are inspected by the traffic section more frequently and to stricter standards than privately owned boats.
Do the boats have a sun shade?
Each of our boats has the adjustable sun awning already installed.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash payments (CHF and Euro), TWINT, credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Maestro), as well as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay.
