We pre-run the river a number of times before the race. You’ve got to have a good idea on what channel to take. Some areas there are a number of different options!!!

High speed low drag. White knuckle bronc busting pure adrenaline. Balls of steel and deep pockets make for one heck of a ride on an aluminum water rocket

I've looked at a few pictures of the boat and some others and I've seen that the nozzle has quite a peculiar shape compared to jet drives used on jet skis and fast ships, is there a reason for the different shape?

How is throttle control done ? Foot pedals ???? 🤔

@davytheswag9370 2 жыл бұрын

yeah foot pedals are more common than hand throttles on boats like this

@ats-3693 Жыл бұрын

Foot pedal throttle with a thumb switch on the steering wheel to control the bow winglet angle of attack.

200k us minimum for something like this. one with a conventional engine can be had for much less but this thing has a 2000hp jet shaft motor. its a jet engine with a shaft output. its like 400lbs fully dressed or something ridiculous making 2000hp so the power to weight on this boat is insane.
