Title: Jet boating.
Post by: Moleman on 25, January, 2015, 07:31:45 PM
This is a few picture's of a Jet boat ride we did as well as the video. The engines on these things sounded great.

Wow! That looks like great fun!

Video is really good. 

Music was good but I'd loved to have heard the engines too.

Hard to top that!

I once worked with a guy that moved out there to make the propulsion units for those things - not a bad lifestyle!

It was their video so I can't do anything about the music mate.  :)

I did this a few years ago, not in Queenstown, but up north near Lake Taupo. These guys have incredible control over their craft, but I remember thinking at the time the HSE would never allow this in the UK :o
