About the Jet Boat
This jet is brand new and has been purpose built for ‘doing its thing’ on the Broadwater. Slipping, sliding, fishtailing, wake surfing, pulling “nose offs” and amazing 360* spins – beach buzzing in centimetres of water at over 40 knots (almost 80 km) – or simply cruising as you catch your breath.
Powered by a massive 440hp, 5.8 litre turbo charged engine and an enormous Hamilton 274 Jet unit (www.hamjet.co.nz) that pumps an incredible 25,000 lt of water per minute and designed with leading edge technology and safety/performance features, our is the most advanced boat of its type in the world.
Every aspect of this sensational vessel has been fine tuned to maximise its performance and safety.
Designers and builders, brothers, Paul & Doc Doherty of 3D Marine Developments (www.3djetboat.co.nz) have for many years built Jet Boats for the harsh NZ conditions in their workshops in Queenstown. They designed and built the new fleet of the world famous ‘Shotover Jet” boats as well as the ‘ Dart River’ and ‘Huka Jet’ boats. They are world leaders in the area of Jet Boat design and construction.
Their knowledge and experience gave birth to our jet boat design, leading the way with innovation and safety features.
