EPIC Canyon Mini Jet Boating - New Zealand

[@lightforce3642]

As an ex Shotover Jet driver, that's some epic canyon driving, better without the music, can hear the throttle working...

[@brendanedwards2277]

When we did the Shotover we hung around for about 90 minutes just to here the V8's roaring up and down the canyon, could've sat there all day if we didn't have other stuff on!

We here in the north coast in Canada have been enjoying finding a niche for ease of entry into 2 stage pump jet boating and making it approachable to a larger audience. My friend along with the local boating community has launched his first model for the watercraft community. The system works with 2 OEM seadoo pumps mainly the supercharged models and lets you link them together for a 2 stage system helping reduce cavitation and helps boaters navigate areas with more water debris with increased performance. "Munster Canada" can be found online... Again it was very hard to decide whether to post this here but I see the passion Andrew has for his products and we are embarking on further explorations of finding innovative solutions for performance boats that comes back and support enthusiasts in our community. It is a great project for an enthusiast... Thanks for your open ears

[@tonybarron6452]

They don’t have a jet like an aeroplane. It’s basically a big pump. They stack often. No Kiwi wants to ruin our rivers but we like to use them.

Looks like a pristine environment with a jet boat roaring through it. Wow, how appropriate. Using nature as a playground for 'extreme' pursuits rather than nurturing and protecting it. This seems to be a growing trend which personally I abhor. We've got endless places to roar around shrieking in. Why can't these special, delicate environments just be left the hell alone or at least be sanctuaries for us to quietly escape the pressures of modern urban life.

You care more than the wildlife does. You know why? Because all you keep doing is personifying animals and pets. They dont have feeling like you do, that doesnt mean they dont feel. That moose doesnt care that a snow machine flew by, to the moose it was a loud fast bear. To the fish the jet boat is just a big loud fish. However that wind turbine will take 100 years of continuous operation with no issues to off set the carbon needed to build it. Same goes for your solar panels. That dude that said he was an ex farmer, good. Farmers when they till release more carbon back into the atmosphere than the entire auto industry does in a year. Blind and ignorant.
