Question
What if I want to bring a vintage jet ski to the reception at Starkey Marina?
Answer
DOOOOO IIIIITTTTTTT!!!!!! But we have to say that by bringing a unregistered jetski to Beaver lake, you risk getting a ticket or getting your jetski impounded, same as it's always been. If you choose to run the risk or would like to bring other motor boats, there is a boat ramp at Starkey Marina, where the reception will be held, and it is $5 per vehicle. If you'd like more information on how to make sure your boat/pwc is properly registered and tagged, visit https://www.swl.usace.army.mil/Missions/Recreation/Lakes/Beaver-Lake/Recreation-Activities/Boating/ and click on the "Arkansas Boating Regulations" hyperlink. Also, the bride and groom reserve to the right to ride any jetski they please. Bring them at your own risk.
