ORIGINS

Launched in 2020, members of the Facebook group Gulf Coast Jet Boaters sought a way to spend some time together with friends on the water.

This event was birthed during the height of the global Corona Virus pandemic and was a welcome outlet for families to get outdoors and to spend time with friends!

For 2024, to facilitate a more national approach to the promotion of this event, JetBoatPilot will assume the role of event host and the title Gulf Coast Jet Boaters will be retired. But don’t worry, all of the event planners from 2023 will remain so your experience will be much the same as years past.

2023

In 2023 this event reached record attendance levels with over 100 boats and 400 participants from around the US! For our third annual gathering Panama City was selected for its emerald green waters, its white sandy beaches and the wide choice of boating activities that our participants have grown to love!

For 2024 we are doing it all again and taking it to the next level!

For those who are not familiar with this event and would like to bring your kids, we want you to rest assured that this is a family friendly event. So bring along the littles and make family memories that will last a lifetime!
