Jet Boat Rides
The Lower Rogue at Gold Beach and
Wedderburn is where the nations original Jet Boat ride began operation. In 1895
when a mail contact was issued to the Mail
Boat Trips to carry the mail by river which started the upriver
passenger boats operations. Here on
the Lower Rogue River Tour Boats will skim the Rogue's waters 52 miles up into the
Wild and Scenic area going far into the Federally protected Wild and Scenic Section.
Normally no power boats are allowed in a Federally Designated Wild Section, however
motor powered
Tour Boats were operating here long before Wild and Scenic protections were put
in place. Tour Boat travelers will be treated to Wild River, Wild
Lands and abundant Wildlife in a safe and exhilarating whitewater trip
upriver. Mail Boat Trips were the first to operate with passengers being taken upriver and
back with
prop driven boats, Jerry's Rogue Jets
was the first to use Hydro Jet Boat technology to allow upriver passenger travel in
low water periods.
