Watercraft Fun on the Rivers (Thurs., 8/28/24)

Steel City Jet Ski Rentals 

Another option for fun on the rivers is Steel City Jet Ski Rentals where you can rent Yamaha WaveRunners. Owner Jake Tovey—a University of Pittsburgh grad and former member of the swim team—loves to jet ski and wondered why there wasn’t a jet ski rental business in Pittsburgh, so he started one. Launching from a new location on the Allegheny River, just downstream from the Highland Park Bridge, you can cruise down to the Point and jet upon the Ohio and Monongahela Rivers as well. 151 19th St., Sharpsburg.

Hazelbakers 

South of Pittsburgh Hazelbakers rents canoes and kayaks at their Perryopolis, Pennsylvania, location (654 Layton Road) for river trips on the Youghiogheny River. And in the mountains at Laurel Hill State Park they rent canoes, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, rowboats and paddleboats for fun on the park’s lake. They also rent bikes at the Laurel Hill location.
