- The game offers a fun and nostalgic racing experience with enjoyable boat physics and a variety of activities, including racing and taxi missions.
- The graphics, particularly the water effects, are impressive for a game of its age, and the soundtrack features a wide range of enjoyable music.
- The career mode is engaging, allowing players to earn money through various means and upgrade their boats, providing a sense of progression.
- The game can feel repetitive and simple, with a short campaign that may not encourage replayability after completion.
- The controls, especially on the Xbox 360 controller, are poorly designed and unconfigurable, leading to frustration during gameplay.
- The AI is lacking, making some races too easy and diminishing the challenge, while the limited selection of upgrades for boats can be disappointing.

The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with many praising the diverse and enjoyable soundtrack that can be easily customized, evoking nostalgia for early 2000s house music.

“Has a wide variety of songs and types of music that can be easily selected (or disabled) in-game.”
“Too bad many of the songs are near impossible to find on their own.”
“- lousy music”

The story aspect of the game is engaging, with players enjoying the progression through various money-making activities like boat taxis, races, and seaplane missions, though some find the locations repetitive. Customization options for boats add a personal touch to the experience, but the overall campaign is considered short and lacking in diverse game modes.
“It's great fun being able to pick liveries and horns for your ship, giving them their own identity in your story.”
“But do not expect many game modes or a long campaign/story.”
