The NYC Jetski Invasion was created in 2017 to give JETSKI enthusiast an Experience of a life time. New York City has many historic Landmarks, Brooklyn bridge, Statue of Liberty, World Trade Center, and The Intrepid Museum just to name a few. So What better way to enjoy the best city in the world than from your own personal water craft! The NYC JETSKI INVASION ride was put together by a few local JETSKI clubs. The first year the ride attracted around 200 riders, fast forward to 2022 and we now expect anywhere from 600 to 800 jet-ski riders each year. As the ride progresses, each year it gets Bigger. The U.S Coast Guard and NYPD Harbor has joined to support and keep everyone safe. Each year we collect donations and sponsorship to donate to a great cause. WE HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL AT THE NEXT “ NYC JETSKI INVASION “
