Our BoatsOur vessels are 9 metres in length and generate 710 horsepower from twin turbo charged Ultrajet-Cummins diesel engines that recycle 760 litres of water a second! Due to the size and passenger capacity of 23 people per boat, the awesome power to weight ratio gives us the ability to provide the most exhilarating ride on Sydney Harbour and surrounding waterways! Our boats are well maintained by expert engineers. Unlike conventional boats, jet boats utilise an internal propeller (impeller) to provide propulsion. Water is drawn in through an inlet in the bottom of the boat, then driven out through a nozzle at the rear with great force. Turning is accomplished by moving the nozzle left to right. Breaking and reverse are achieved by using a deflector, similar to the reverse thrust deflector on a jet aircraft.
