Nope, and that’s by design. The Jet Boat Ride Wenatchee is a family-safe ride that’s exhilarating without being extreme.

Unfortunately, pets and infants are not permitted on the boat for safety reasons. Our seating is fixed, and the ride involves high-speed maneuvers. Children must be at least 6 years old, and all guests must be able to sit independently and follow safety instructions.
