FAQs About Renting WaveRunners, Kayaks, & ATVs In Clarksville

Frequently Asked Questions: WAVERUNNERS

What's Your Cancellation Policy?

All Cancellations Require: an email request in writing to "[email protected]". Cancellations can not be processed over the phone.

WEEKDAYS

🚨 No cancellations are permitted within 72 hours of scheduled rental time. Prior to 72 hours of scheduled booking, cancellations are permitted for a $75 cancellation fee, with all other monies being refunded.

Within 72 hour window, credit is available to be applied to a future rental within the same season (except for same-day cancellations).

Same-day cancellations result in no refund and no credit being issued.

WEEKENDS / HOLIDAYS

🚨 No cancellations are permitted within 10 days of scheduled rental time. Prior to 10 days of scheduled booking, you may cancel for a $125 cancellation charge with all other monies being refunded.

Within 10 days of scheduled booking, a same-season credit can be applied for a $50 fee.

What If I'm Running Late?

If you are late for your scheduled departure time, you will forfeit that time on the water. The equipment must still be returned on time at the end of your reserved booking time. Late fees of $25 every 15 mins will still apply.

What About Inclement Weather?

There are no refunds for inclement weather conditions. If inclement weather causes unsafe conditions, guests can move their reservation to another day during the current season, with no additional cost.

Inclement weather is defined by the National Weather Service as high winds, lightning, or thunder. If the weather turns severe while you are on the water, seek shelter immediately in a safe area or an area of protected shoreline where you can safely secure equipment.

How Long Is A Full & Half Day Rental?

A full-day rental is 8 hours and is booked from 9am-5pm. A half-day rental is 4 hours and runs either 8am-12pm or 1pm-5pm. You are free to arrive anytime after your start time, but no matter what time you depart from the dock you must return by either 12pm or 5pm to avoid incurring late charges and/or affecting someone else's start time.

*Full and half-day start and end times have the potential to be adjusted with approval, if there are no schedule conflicts. For Example: You book a full-day but call to get a start time of 7am approved, so you start at 7am and end at 3pm.

How Old Do You Have To Be To Rent?

You must be 21+ years old with a valid driver's license* to rent any motorized equipment like WaveRunners or ATVs. To drive any WaveRunner you must be 18+ years old and have a valid driver's license. *MUST HAVE ID ON YOUR PERSON to depart the dock

Do I Have To Buy Gas?

You are launched with a full tank of gas, but gas is not included in the price of rental. Upon return, our dockhands will refuel the ski with your card on file (or other preferred payment type) at current marina fuel price. Fuel is not included, but we will perform the refueling on your behalf. Fueling elsewhere on the river is prohibited unless authorized by our staff ahead of time or due to an emergency fuel situation.

The Renter is responsible for the cost of refueling for the amount of fuel used during your time on the water.

Refueling any ski without prior approval can result in potential damage to the engine and result in immense damage charges.

How Far Can I Go?

You are permitted to go a maximum of 7 miles in either direction from the dock area. Here is a River Guide Map to help you explore the Cumberland area around Clarksville.

How Many People Can Ride?

Currently every one of our skis seats a maximum of 3 people. How comfortable max seating is will depend on the individuals riding and the model of ski selected. Our FX models are designed to give more room and comfort for multiple riders.

What Do I Need To Bring?

• Valid ID/Driver's License

• Cold drinks, water, snacks (mind storage limitations)

• Adequate clothes/shoes for the water

• Sunscreen (if desired)

• Protective covers for phones

Can We Go Tubing?

Yes! We do have a $25 Tubing Package that will provide you the tube, rope, portable pump, rack, and an additional seat that's reversible for the back of the ski. Everything you need for a fun day of tubing on the Cumberland!

How Many Life Vests Do You Provide?

We provide enough life vests for each individual riding. Child life vests are available upon request, though we do recommend bringing your own for any child under 12, especially under the age of 3.

What Are The Age Requirements?

People of all ages are welcome to enjoy the water. The driver must be 18+ years old and be approved to drive ahead of time by staff. (with approval and under direct parental supervision, that can be dropped to 16+ years)

Anyone 12 years and under must wear a life vest at all times when the ski is in motion. Be sure to review the TN State Regulations, here.

Can We Bring Glass Bottles?

No, glass bottles of any kind are not permitted on the skis. We recommend bringing cans or plastic bottles.

Where Are You Located?

We depart from the Liberty Park Boat Ramp (unless other arrangements have been discussed and approved). Our office is located within Tailwater Marine, right on Riverside near Liberty Park.

What Type Of Fish Can I Catch?

The Cumberland River is a diverse waterway hosting many types of great fish to catch. Predominantly, you'll see people catch Striper, Catfish, Crappie, and Bass.

Frequently Asked Questions: KAYAKS

Are Paddles & Vests Included?

Yes! Every kayak rental comes with a paddle and a life vest. However, with kayaks, if you happen to have your own paddle and/or life vest, you're more than welcome to bring those.

Do You Offer Multi-day Rentals?

We'd be happy to discuss this with you! Currently we do offer overnight rentals. Multi-day kayak rentals are done on a case-by-case basis. Give us a call or text, let us know what you're wanting to do, and we'll do our best to accommodate you.

What Are The Weight Restrictions?

Each kayak has it's own max weight capacity, so you'll need to check those stats on Our Rentals page next to the kayaks you're considering. We do have kayak options that should work for all shapes and sizes.

Are There Age Restrictions?

You must be 18+ years old to rent a kayak. Parents and legal guardians are welcome to allow their children to accompany them with their own kayak at their discretion, assuming full responsibility for them with a waiver on file. Any child under the age of 16 going out in their own kayak, even with parental supervision, can be risky and should do so with caution. All minors should possess adequate swimming skills and wear a life jacket at all times on the water.

Where Do We Launch From?

Unless otherwise agreed upon and approved by CCR Staff, you will launch from the Liberty Park Boat Ramp area. We are happy to consider special launch requests, just call or text us.

Do I Need Prior Experience?

Kayaking can take some getting used to, but for the adventurous, no, you do not need previous experience. However, understand that you venture out at your own risk and understand the rules of the waterways, and if you require our staff to come rescue you for any reason, there will be a minimum $250 fee applied to the card on file.
