As a sports practice or form of fun, navigation on nautical bikes is subject to a regulation that we must know to avoid accidents.

• There are currently two types of use: private use and rental per approved company.
• For particular use, and by lease outside a rental circuit, it is required to be in possession of titling that will vary depending on the cylinder.
• The legal requirements for their use must be met: registration, compulsory insurance subscription and navigation licence.
• It is necessary to have a minimum age for use of 18 years (or 16 with the written consent of the parent or guardian).
• You must wear an approved life jacket, whether you are flying the bike or a passenger. It is recommended to wear an isothermal suit and not to separate more than one mile from the coast.
• Do not approach less than 50 metres from another motorbike, floating device, diver-signalling buoy, vessels or vessels.
• If you have problems don't separate yourself from your nautical bike. Never try to swim the coast.
• Navigation in commercial ports is prohibited except for the purpose of going from the sea to a marina installed inside or vice versa. In its interior it will not be able to navigate more than 3 knots. Nor can it be navigated in the access channels to the ports, in the fondation areas and in the areas of high concentration of ships.
