    So what I get from the article is that the jet ski operators were never licensed or insured in the first place, so they aren't insured and neither are the tourists that rent them? Yikes!

    Legal Jet Ski Operators always had insurance. Hence were run out of business due to lower overhead of illegal operators who never paid for insurance . Tourists never ask " Can I see your Watersports License?"
    The question usually asked "Can I get a good deal? " I just inquired with my insurance company it's 300,000JA to insure (6) jet skis. We have a Watersports Association that met at Treehouse last Friday. I am proud to say that all of my (3) of my boats are fully insured plus my (6) paddle boards. Buyer Beware.

    This whole thing kind of reminds me of the Red Plate taxi business. Yes, it costs more money to be legal but, if the illegal operators are removed then the pool of people wanting to use the legal and insured service (taxi or Jet Ski) will be sufficient enough to make a good profit.

    I think Gail is well aware of that and I do encourage people to use properly licensed and insured service.

    Looks like you may need to go to Ocho Rios to indulge.
