The permit requires operators to adhere to specific rules, including designated staging areas and launch schedules. The launch is open daily from 7:00 AM to 11:00 PM, and operators must stage their Sea-Doos/Jet Skis in the designated area to avoid congestion. When launching, operators must follow a specific route to avoid conflicts with other watercraft. Popular routes include traveling east towards Scarborough Bluffs or west towards the Toronto Islands. Operators must also be aware of the 30-minute waiting time during peak season (June 15 to September 15) and plan their launches accordingly. The launch fee is $10 per launch, and operators are required to pay this fee for each Sea-Doo/Jet Ski launched. To avoid delays, operators are advised to arrive early and be prepared to launch their watercraft promptly.","related_ids":["ashbridges-jet-ski-rentals-and-commercial-staging"],"last_verified":"2026-06-28","authority":"https://ashbridgesbayboatlaunch.com","url":"https://ashbridgesbayboatlaunch.com/en/knowledge/ashbridges-jet-ski-rentals-and-commercial-staging","markdown_url":"https://ashbridgesbayboatlaunch.com/api/knowledge/ashbridges-jet-ski-rentals-and-commercial-staging?format=md&lang=en"}
