All members must read & adhere to the Purpose & Code of Ethics

If you are a New Jetboater, WWA membership is a great way to gain skills and knowledge that can make your boating experiences safer, easier, and more enjoyable.  As a WWA member, you will have frequent opportunities to increase your jetboating know-how through direct interaction with experienced, knowledgeable jetboaters in on-the-river training environments.

You may want to check out boater education classes and information available through the Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation.  click here for more information

If you are a Not-So-New Jetboater, WWA membership will provide you more options for jetboating recreation.  The WWA maintains a full calendar of Annual Events organized specifically for the recreational enjoyment of our members.  These events combine exciting whitewater river runs with social get-togethers to produce thoroughly pleasurable outings.  The WWA is family oriented and our events offer members the occasion to come together to share experiences, to meet others who enjoy the pleasure of jetboating, and to have a great time!

If you are a Veteran Jetboater who spends a good deal of time on the rivers, WWA membership provides a means to protect your personal interests.  Every year brings new attempts to limit access to whitewater rivers through increased regulation, restrictions, and fees.  The WWA is an ardent proponent of fair and equitable access to rivers for all users including private jetboaters.  The WWA and its members have invested many thousands of hours and many tens-of-thousands of dollars in an ongoing campaign to thwart partisan, discriminatory, and exclusionary regulations that would reduce or deny our access to these public resources.  However, this is a never-ending challenge and the voice of every private jetboater is needed.  Through the WWA, as a united group, individual jetboaters have a much louder voice and create a much larger presence.  Help protect the future of your access to whitewater rivers by joining.
