About Us

For Captains Dale, Ron & Rudy it's not just a summer job, but a passion!

We are the Original Wisconsin River Jet Boat Trip and the first Jet Boat Tour in the Midwest. We have been independently operated since 1997. The Dells Experience Jet Boats operate on the Upper Dells of the Wisconsin River.

Captain Ron, owner of The Original Dells Experience Jet Boats and a ten-year Navy Veteran just can't get enough of this job! You won't find a more personalized and exciting tour than the one where the owner is your pilot. Captain Ron lives in the Wisconsin Dells area with his wife, Maria. They can be found working on their business together while they await their first child.

Captain Dale, a retired Military Veteran, has been with the company for 7 years and is often referenced by return guests as, "The Oregon Hippie." He is a free spirited captain that enjoys getting his passengers wet on the hottest days of the summer. Captain Dale and his wife, Ellen, live in the state of Oregon where they enjoy hunting and fishing together during the off-season.

Captain Rudy, a veteran of the Coast Guard and licensed Captain, has been with the company for 4 years. As a retired racecar driver, Captain Rudy fulfills his need for speed on his jet boat tour. Captain Rudy is an instructor for the Coast Guard and resides in La Crosse, Wisconsin with his girlfriend Kathy during the off-season.

Our vessels are 32 feet long, 11 ½ feet wide and licensed for 45 passengers. Our girls, Miss Wisconsin, Miss Liberty and Miss Dells power up to 1200 h.p. and do things most boats only wish they could do. Your flight will include power stops, 360 spins and speeds rocketing up to 45 mph. We currently have 3 boats and a small staff of 3 qualified drivers and five sales representatives.
