Rent a Jet Ski Yacht in Fort Lauderdale — 5 Private Charters

Rent a Jet Ski Yacht in Fort Lauderdale — 5 Private Charters

⚓ Five crewed yachts, each with a jet ski on the swim platform — your guest list, your captain, and a full day of throttle across the Fort Lauderdale waterways.

↓ pick your yacht & your jet ski — the Intracoastal is yours, the crew is ready

Nobody hands you the keys to a jet ski on a tour boat. On a privately crewed yacht charter in Fort Lauderdale, the ski comes with the vessel — and the vessel comes with a captain, a crew and a day that belongs to your group alone. Teak underfoot, a cold drink on the sunpad, and a jet ski idling off the transom waiting for whoever wants it first. 🛥️💨

🗺️ Your Fort Lauderdale Day Afloat

Route planning map for a private charter day on the Fort Lauderdale waterways

Board around 10:00 AM at a Fort Lauderdale marina, welcome drink in hand, while the crew briefs whoever is driving the jet ski first. Your captain reads the wind and the tide, then builds the day around what your group actually wants — a slow swim off the beach club, a run up the New River past the mega-yachts, or the long stretch north where the water opens up and the ski can breathe. With a full day ahead there is room for two or three unhurried stops and a proper lunch at anchor. 🌊

Show details

Morning — depart & first jet ski session. A 10:00 AM boarding, then a short run to a calm anchorage where the ski goes in the water. The crew handles the launch, the life vests and the safety briefing — your group just decides who rides first.
Midday — lunch at anchor & water toys. Lunch is served on deck while the yacht sits in the shallows. Floats, snorkelling gear, paddleboards and the sunpad keep everyone busy until the light starts to soften and the second ski session opens up.
💡 Insider tip: ask your captain to run the jet ski early. By early afternoon the Intracoastal chop picks up and the calm morning water — the good water — is gone until the next day.

These full-day charters suit couples, families and small groups who want a real day out on the water rather than a scheduled tour. Every yacht comes fully crewed, so navigation, anchoring, jet ski launching and service are somebody else’s job — yours is the swimming, the riding and the sunset run home.

🌴 Feeling the Vibe?

They call it the Millionaire’s Row — the stretch of the Intracoastal where the yachts docked out front are worth more than the houses behind them. Cruise it slowly at golden hour and watch your group go quiet.

🤫 A Secret for You…

Ferretti, Sunseeker and Lazzara all started as small family yards — Ferretti was founded in a garage in Forlì in 1968. Three of the five boats in this article carry a badge that began that way.

The Superyacht

112 Lazarra

112 Lazarra superyacht with jet ski and jacuzzi for charter in Fort Lauderdale

  • 🛁 Jacuzzi on deck and a beach club at the waterline
  • 🚤 Jet ski, Seabob, wakeboard, waterslide and paddleboard
  • 🎣 Snorkelling and fishing gear for the whole group
  • 📶 WiFi, AC and five cabins for ten overnight guests
  • 👨‍✈️ Private crew included
At 112 feet with a 24-foot beam, five cabins and a crew of four, this Lazzara is the largest yacht in the group and refitted in 2023. The toy list reads like a wish list — jet ski, Seabob, wakeboard, waterslide, paddleboard — and the jacuzzi is where the day ends.

🛥️ The Best Part?

The 54 Aquila spreads 25 feet across with a shallow 4.5-foot draft. That is not a spec — that is your group anchored where the monohulls cannot reach, jet ski in the water, nobody else around.

⭐ Top Pick — Likely to Sell Out

54 Aquila

Rent a Jet Ski Yacht in Fort Lauderdale — 5 Private Charters

  • 🚤 Jet ski, paddleboard, snorkelling gear and floats on board
  • ⚖️ 25-foot beam — catamaran stability, zero roll at anchor
  • 🐠 Shallow 4.5-foot draft for the sandbars others skip
  • 🛏️ Three cabins and three bathrooms for six overnight guests
  • 👨‍✈️ Private crew included
A 2023 power catamaran with three cabins for six overnight guests and room for 13 on the day, crewed by two. The jet ski, the paddleboard and the sandbar-ready draft make her the boat that keeps every age group happy at once.

⚓ One Last Thing…

Aquila is the catamaran brand that turned the power cat into a mainstream American boat. The 54 is the one people book twice — once to try, once because the stability at anchor ruined them for anything else.

Learn More About Yacht Rental in Fort Lauderdale

What is included in a full-day private yacht charter with jet ski in Fort Lauderdale?

Most charters include the yacht, a professional captain and crew, fuel for the standard route, life jackets, passenger insurance, soft drinks and water — plus the jet ski, floats and water toys listed on the yacht page. Catering, extra fuel and transport can be arranged on top. Check each yacht’s live page for exact inclusions.

Do we need experience or a licence to use the jet ski on a crewed charter?

No. Every yacht here is fully crewed and the jet ski comes with a safety briefing from the crew before anyone rides. The captain and crew handle launching, recovery and the rules, so your group only has to decide who goes first.

How many guests can a Fort Lauderdale jet ski yacht take on a day charter?

The yachts in this article are licensed for up to 13 day guests, with two to five cabins sleeping between six and ten overnight guests. Crew quarters are separate, so the whole guest area stays yours.

Where can we ride the jet ski on a full-day charter from Fort Lauderdale?

From a Las Olas or Fort Lauderdale marina, a full day comfortably covers a calm morning anchorage for the first ski session, a run up the Intracoastal past the mega-yacht docks, a sandbar stop and a golden-hour return. Your captain builds the route around the wind, the tide and where the water is flattest.

How far ahead should we book a private jet ski yacht in Fort Lauderdale?

For weekends, holiday weeks and event periods, three to four weeks ahead is sensible; the most requested 54–78ft motor yachts are often gone earlier. Midweek dates open up much closer in.

Is the yacht private for just our group?

Yes — when you charter through YATR the entire yacht is yours, with no other passengers aboard. The captain and crew work only for your group for the whole charter.
