    My friend told me about ambucare-there located allover the island-but are not stationed in Negril…none--the less they are more what you expect a professional ambulance to be and their website says they take debit/credit cards..

    You can email them and ask about response times to negril and costs…..heres their website www.ambucareja.com and their mobay # 876-953-2938
    I would hope someone who lives there would know what private ambulance is used most and would respond to your question…

    I have a good friend who has the largest jet ski and boat rental operation in St. Augustine. 20 - 25 skis on any given day.

    Here are the regulations:

    1. Riders must go thru a quick review of safety procedures and designated riding areas
    2. Riders under 18 take a short written exam that gets then the required certification to run a watercraft
    3. The rental operation must have an employee on a ski with a radio in the riding area to enforce the riding area and no wake zonesrequirements.

    A bit too regulated for Jamaica?

    It's always the same balancing act between the "capital of casual" being interpreted by the visitors as anything goes and trying to have some kind common sense regulations.

    Back when I had the boats we didn't even need insurance or any sort of license. But Negril was a tenth of what it is today.
