点评:Three of us chose the jetski Island Hopping Trip, which costs roughly 369 USD per person, to go to islands 43 miles away. To give some background, for the past year, we have been doing jetski island hopping trip with a different rental service that uses a jetski brand called seadoo, and we wanted try something new. The only rental service for Island Hopping in Jakarta that uses Yamaha jetskis is this rental service called Kraken Watersports, located in Baywalk Mall. Or so we thought…
The admin said the jetskis are Yamaha jetskis, but we can just tell by looking at the jetskis they weren’t due to no waterjet coming out the back, like a regular Yamaha. Once observing the jetskis up close, we were all confused on the quality of the jetskis; they all seemed very old and has never been maintained or checked in a long time. Not even within 5 mins of the Trip, the jetski I was using ran out of battery. And then, another 30 mins extra of just sitting around waiting for it to be fixed.
Once we got to the Island, all is well, we just relaxed and ate at the restaurant. However, when we were sitting down, I noticed none of the jetski crew was there, so I asked them whether they had eaten yet. And their response was no, 2nd Red Flag, the $369 doesn’t even include the crew's lunches, which doesn’t happen in the other rental jetski service we usually use. Therefore, I paid for their lunch.
Once it was 1 pm, the waves were getting worse. So we told the crew that we wanted to head back, and so we did. This time, we switched jetskis among each other. Not even 1 km from the island, the jetski I was using ran out of battery AGAIN. And so, that jetski had to get towed back to the island, and the crew worked on fixing it. And there we are again. Back on the Island. For another hour or two.
About an hour plus had passed, the crew charged the battery just to get the jetski starting again. Once we got out of the Island for the second time, the wind picked up, even more, making it ultimately more dangerous and risky. While the crew is in front leading us back to Jakarta, one of us was way behind. This got me worried because the crew didn’t seem to care and just kept going without looking back. I used a whistle to get the crew's attention like 500m away. Had I not paid attention to the person way behind me, he would’ve just been left behind. Remember, this would have NEVER happened if we were able to leave earlier without the battery dying.
While we were 80% of our way back from the trip, one of the three of us started to get lost and was going in the wrong direction. And yet again, the crew didn’t even notice. So I went to the person, and I helped him get back on track with the rest of us. Honestly, it seemed like I was a better crew than the actual crew. And to make it even worse, when we were like 90% of the way, the actual crew’s jetski broke down, and smoke was coming out of the back.
Luckily, we all arrived at the mall docks unscathed, but there were so many things that could’ve gone wrong due to the lack of professionality. After the trip, I tried to contact the admin about getting a refund for at least one of the jetskis as it kept breaking down. But all they said to me was that as long as you got back to the mall, no refunds are allowed, period.
If you’ve gotten to the end of this review, sorry for wasting your time, but I’d rather waste your time today than your money then. Hence I’m telling you to please be careful with this company, especially for the price.
FYI: I asked the crew about the jetskis, and they said they have all been engine swapped with car engines, hence why they were not proper Yamaha jetskis. Although this may sound cool, given the maintenance of these jetskis, I don’t trust their safety given the warning lights keep flashing. Below are pictures of us sitting on the shore, waiting for the crew to fix the battery on the Island.
翻译:我们三个人选择了水上摩托跳岛游,费用大约为每人369美元,前往43英里外的岛屿。为了提供一些背景知识,在过去的一年里,我们一直在进行水上摩托艇环岛游,并使用名为 seadoo 的水上摩托艇品牌进行不同的租赁服务,我们想尝试一些新的东西。雅加达跳岛游唯一使用雅马哈摩托艇的租赁服务是位于 Baywalk 购物中心的名为 Kraken Watersports 的租赁服务。或者我们认为...
管理员说水上摩托艇是雅马哈水上摩托艇,但我们可以通过看水上摩托艇来判断它们不是因为后面没有水射流,就像普通的雅马哈水上摩托艇一样。近距离观察摩托艇后,我们都对摩托艇的质量感到困惑;它们看起来都很旧,很长一段时间都没有维护或检查过。甚至在旅行后的 5 分钟内,我使用的摩托艇就没电了。然后,又多坐了 30 分钟等待修复。
一旦我们到达岛上,一切都很好,我们只是放松并在餐厅吃饭。然而,当我们坐下时,我注意到水上摩托艇的船员们都不在,所以我问他们吃过饭没有。他们的回答是否定的,2nd Red Flag,369 美元甚至不包括船员的午餐,这在我们通常使用的其他水上摩托艇租赁服务中是没有的。因此,我支付了他们的午餐。
一到下午1点,海浪就越来越大了。所以我们告诉机组人员我们想回去,我们就这么做了。这一次,我们互相交换了摩托艇。离岛不到 1 公里,我使用的摩托艇再次没电了。因此,水上摩托艇不得不被拖回岛上,船员们努力修理它。我们又来了。回到岛上。再过一两个小时。
大约一个多小时过去了,机组人员为电池充电只是为了让摩托艇重新启动。我们第二次出岛后,风就刮得更大了,最终使它变得更加危险和危险。当机组人员在前面带我们返回雅加达时,我们中的一个人落后了。这让我很担心,因为船员们似乎并不在意,只是头也不回地继续前进。我用哨子引起了 500 米外机组人员的注意。如果我不注意我身后的那个人,他就会被抛在后面。请记住,如果我们能够在电池没电的情况下早点离开,这将永远不会发生。
当我们从旅行回来的路上走了 80% 时,我们三个人中的一个人开始迷路并且走错了方向。再一次,船员们甚至没有注意到。所以我去找那个人,我帮助他和我们其他人一起回到正轨。老实说,我似乎是一个比实际船员更好的船员。更糟糕的是,当我们进行到 90% 时,实际船员的摩托艇坏了,后面冒出浓烟。
幸运的是,我们都毫发无损地到达了购物中心码头,但是由于缺乏专业性,有很多事情可能会出错。旅行结束后,我试图联系管理员以获取至少其中一辆水上摩托艇的退款,因为它一直在发生故障。但他们只对我说,只要你回到购物中心,就不允许退款,期间。
如果您已经读完这篇评论,很抱歉浪费您的时间,但我宁愿今天浪费您的时间,也不愿浪费您的钱。因此,我告诉你请小心这家公司,尤其是价格。
仅供参考:我向机组人员询问了水上摩托艇的情况,他们说他们都用汽车发动机更换了发动机,因此为什么它们不是合适的雅马哈水上摩托艇。虽然这听起来很酷,但考虑到这些摩托艇的维护,我不相信它们的安全,因为警告灯一直在闪烁。下面是我们坐在岸边的照片,等待船员在岛上修理电池。
