i watched this video when it came out over 6 years ago...still watch it from time to time...so peacefull...love the music

[@peterbell2446]

If you are interested, the music up to 6:27 is Greenland, by Emancipator kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6THf6iXa5hlppI

Must have seen this movie 50 times. Amazed everytime of the river and it's surroundings. The music is perfect for this scenery. Greetings from Sweden.

[@goatracing610]

It was a perfect day to go up there, I normally get up there in the boat 2-3 times a year, thanks for watching

[@joshuahoffbuhr1476]

Not gonna lie. I was mesmerized by this video. Looks like a trip to heaven.

[@kingy002]

Waterjet Propulsion boats were first developed in NZ by Sir William Hamilton who started out in 1939 at Irishmans Creek. They are the only way to get up the braided rivers of NZ.

[@PapaWheelie1]

Little known fact- that five gallon red tank has water in it. Just enough to get home if the river runs dry.

[@nudist0885]

...............considering that ALL of New Zealand has only 4,775,000 people in a country that's more than 100,000 square miles in size.................(8^)

[@nikolai3620]

No big deal. Just cruising through middle earth on my speed boat...

[@nikolai3620]

Well since middle earth is in New Zealand, I would say no.

[@nikolai3620]

In Lord Of The Rings, not reality.

No, the term is equivalent to what it's being applied to. Just give it up, man...

Nothing was metaphorical about my comment, but okay.

Listening to 1ZB talkback on that sweet headset radio while fanging a mini jetboat in literally centimetres of water. Entertaining! Love NZ. Scenery is amazing. Perspective works really well.

[@brianmoore1820]

I appreciate you video. It's the only way I'd ever get to see such beauty and your skill at handling the craft. Thanks.

[@amerj5243]

I could watch this all day !! 😍🌈🌞🌄🏜🗻⛰🛶

[@reneshay889]

Absolutely amazing! Such beautiful scenery and was shocked how shallow water was . Wonderful music also.

[@blueskiesnz]

The BEST small jet video clip ever. Excellent scenery & top class (in sympathy) music. Congratulations

[@martondaniel1]

This is the peak of life, having this journey, the driver has a style and what a style

[@TranceFur]

This is extremely impressive. Both the driving and the fact that the boat can run in a couple inches of water and make it over rocks. 6:10 was so good.

[@djromax]

Thank you sir..you made me smile for 9 minutes and 41 seconds!

[@ryanm.191]

NZ is one beautiful place. That scenery is truly stunning..

[@MellowCycle]

[@camgnilpe9300]

adamfremer . do everyone a favor and keep your stupid opinions to yourself! STFU AND FUCKOFF!

[@SD-ft6gs]

too bad the thing is so loud it chases away all fauna, and scares fish to death... ugh silly humans

[@FarmPrepper1]

A Most excellent example of shallow draft boating as I have ever seen. Few people are actually away of how serious a sport it is . Well Done. G'Day Mate.

[@lushenvg6414]

The nice music for the nice video.Its beautiful place!!!

[@kaylanicole896]

What is that like an inch of water???? You could run this thing down a wet sidewalk.damn.

[@gardenguru461]

I don't care if this is a year old comment! Theirs a company that offers rides through the mountains where Lord of the rings was filmed. 12 people in the boat, can travel on 30cm of water, the arsehole driving then decides to start doing 360's. The most amazing country I've ever been too

[@gardenguru461]

[@aspenrebel]

Well it ain't a fan boat.

[@generalkayoss7347]

The mini boats like this can run in as little as 4 inches of water.

[@ModifiedMachinesUK]

Awesome video, shocked at how well that boat coped with the shallow water. what an amazing looking place too!

[@Harold_Flite]

Used to holiday at Benmore and Twizel when we were kids..love this area of NZ. And the Hamilton Jet is one of NZs best inventions.

[@drowseh]

Jet boating was crazy fun! Last summer or their winter, I went in the freezing cold and it was an amazing experience. What so cool is that the boat barely touches the waters surface so you’re literally flying and can get crazy close to the shore and make impossible turns!

[@andrew.l.5493]

Great video, really enjoyed the views and music.

[@Freddygt351oldschool]

this really makes me miss home . l was a young kid live just down the road from where this was taken I've lived in aus for the past 25 years . It doesn't get any better than this great vid bud 👍👍👍👍

[@ukmudlover7839]

Love this vid ! good choice of music to.

[@rekles8695]

Any idea what this track is called or who it is?

[@ukmudlover7839]

RekLes not sure but I think iys some kind of deep trance music

[@DanaChapman1]

It's called "Greenland" by Emancipator

[@ukmudlover7839]

Dana Chapman cheers buddy

[@DesertPackrat]

Greenland may be the trance version but it's a spinoff of the song "Fade to Grey" by Visage from the 80s( maybe 90s).

[@SucoVidya]

I've decided to migrate to New Zealand and become a boat. Please drive me.

probably need to trade that life preserver in for a helmet. your not gonna drown in 2 inches of water.

[@flintfinderkb]

ULTRA NOOB wow. I make a comment about a helmet and a life preserver and I don't know about water sports. your name is very fitting. ultra noob. perfect

[@MarksTournaments]

ULTRA NOOB fucking destroyed

[@montegb2951]

New Zealand, like most shitty countries in this overly-regulated world, requires a properly sized life jacket for every person on board.... considering the size of the boat, it's probably just as easy to wear it as stow it.

[@fredfredburger1511]

your first sentence is extremely false. Use some logic lmfao...

[@DanTweekStudios]

So Cool! I used to drive a Jet Boat similar to this one. A small 14ft Boston Whaler with a 115hp OMC . They only made them for a few years i think, they were INSANELY fast, but I was lucky enough to have one and would tear ass around tiny back waterways. Some were only a few inches deep and 4 ft wide in sections, but you take it to a whole other level! this looks insane and great fun, plus your view is MUCH nicer than NJ back waters lol. Great video! Made me a bit nostalgic...
