Turn your play days into pay days! If you own or have access to a jet ski (or any personal watercraft) and love being on the water, BoatBites offers a one-of-a-kind way to earn money on a jet ski. Even if you don’t, we have programs available to connect you with one. Being out on the water is all about freedom and fun, so why not get paid for it? In this post, we’ll explain why becoming a BoatBites Squad Member is the best side hustle for water lovers – and even a viable full-time gig – for anyone who can’t get enough of the waves.  

What Is BoatBites? The First Boat Food Delivery Service for Boaters

BoatBites is a groundbreaking on-water delivery platform that connects hungry boaters with local food and essentials. Think of it as “food delivery for boats.” Customers out on the water use the BoatBites app to order meals, drinks, ice, and other supplies, and drivers deliver those items directly to their boats. The twist? BoatBites exclusively uses personal watercraft (PWC)—like Jet Skis and Sea-Doos—to make deliveries. As a driver, that means you’ll always be on your jet ski instead of stuck on land. No cars, no traffic jams, and no need to dock a big boat; you zip across the water to deliver orders right to a customer’s vessel. It’s like Uber Eats meets jet skiing, and you’re at the helm of the action. 

Delivery Jobs on the Water: Work That Feels Like Play 

Most delivery gigs involve sitting in a car or weaving through city streets. Not this one! Jet ski delivery jobs with BoatBites turn work into an adventure. You’ll spend your days cruising on sunlit waves instead of waiting at red lights. Every delivery is a chance to enjoy the saltwater breeze, explore beautiful waterways, and have a story to tell. As a BoatBites driver, that is your workday. You’re getting paid to do what you already love – riding the waves – and delivering happiness to boaters at the same time. It’s no wonder some drivers call it “the coolest side gig ever!” 

And don’t worry – even though it’s fun and casual, you’re working for an all-pro company. BoatBites equips you with a user-friendly app that guides you through each delivery, so you always know where to pick up items and the location of the boater awaiting their order. You get to swap the rush-hour road rage for a stress-free cruise on the water, all while delivering happiness (and sandwiches) to people having a day of leisure. It hardly feels like work when your “office” is a jet ski on the open water! 

Ultimate Flexibility – The Perfect Side Hustle for Water Lovers

One of the biggest perks of driving for BoatBites is the flexible scheduling. This truly is the perfect side hustle because you decide when and where you want to work. Set your own hours and work on your own terms. Want to make extra cash on weekends when the waterways are busiest? Prefer weekday afternoons or the occasional evening sunset run? It’s completely up to you. You can treat it as a part-time gig to supplement your income or fully engage during the boating season if you’re in a hotspot. The BoatBites platform allows you to select your preferred shift(s) and delivery area (within the supported regions), so you can stick to your favorite local waters or discover new ones while on the clock. 

This flexibility means you can balance BoatBites deliveries with your lifestyle. Whether you’re looking to make a little extra on the side or seeking a full-time job on the water, BoatBites can fit the bill. Many drivers start as part-timers and realize they enjoy it so much (and they make good money) that they ramp up to more hours. It’s a play day on your schedule, with a payout. 

Earn Great Money (plus Really Great Tips) Riding Your Jet Ski

Let’s talk about money, because a fun job still needs to pay well. BoatBites drivers enjoy great pay plus generous tips, turning your time on the water into significant income. Unlike typical gig apps that might leave you guessing, BoatBites ensures that drivers earn a guaranteed minimum rate, and you keep 100% of your tips—so your charm is your superpower now. Boaters are excited and grateful to have food delivered right to their boat, leading to generous tips. In fact, drivers often find they’re making much more than they would doing similar gigs on land. Sunshine and sea tend to put people in a good mood, which can translate into better tips! 

Because BoatBites is an exclusive, premium service, customers recognize the value of what you’re providing. You’re not just delivering a pizza; you’re offering an experience and convenience that boaters have never experienced and can’t get anywhere else. Many BoatBites customers are out celebrating special occasions or simply enjoying family time, and your arrival with hot food or cold drinks totally makes their day. Happy customers lead to great tips. And since you’re on a PWC, you can make deliveries quickly and handle multiple orders in a short time when demand is high, further boosting your earnings.

There are plenty of reasons why being a BoatBites driver is a blast. Here are some of the top perks that set this opportunity apart:

From Part-Time Gig to Full-Time Wave Rider

This opportunity is whatever you make of it. It can be a part-time gig on your days off – a way to justify spending more time on your jet ski. Or, if you live in a region with a long boating season, you might turn it into a full-time job. Some drivers have even transitioned from traditional 9-to-5 jobs to focus on BoatBites, finding that the income and quality of life on the water replace the typical office grind. 

As BoatBites expands and the demand from boaters grows, the need for reliable PWC drivers will only increase. In other words, there’s plenty of room to grow Whether part-time or go full-time, being part of the Bite Squad is a flexible opportunity that can adapt to your goals.
