New Zealand heralds you to its exciting world of Jet Boating!
The euphoria caused by jet boating along the white water rapids of Canterbury is to be experienced first hand to be believed. Your adrenaline is pumping out of control elevating you to new levels of exhilaration.
A jet boat is different from the other boats in that it does not have an external propeller,it has an internal propeller called impeller.
The water is sucked in through inlets at the bottom of the boat. The impellers then drive the water out with great force through nozzles at the rear of the boat. When the nozzles rotate simultaneously during this process, it enables the boat to change direction.
In the absence of external propellers and the ensuing damage to them, the improved clearance under the boat enables the jet to be reversed instantly for quick braking. This instant response causes the boat to do 360 degree spins effortlessly almost within its own length. You are certain to be drenched with every such spin.
This squirting out of water at high speeds just below the surface allows jet boats to operate in depths of just centimetres. This leads to a free for all thrill that will wrap you for the rest of your life and give you goosebumps when you recall the exhiliration and the euphoria of the whole jet boating experience.
The minute you are strapped up in the boat, your adventure starts as the driver steps on the pedal. The thrills abound in plenty as the driver skillfully whips the boat into top gear along centimetres of water to leave you frothing with excitement.
The driver avoids crags and boulders with dexterity as you see rocks flit past your face as you hold on to the handrail for all that you are worth despite being sprayed with water
The best part about jet boating is that is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels and can be enjoyed all year round.
The most exhilarating jet boating rides in the South Island of New Zealand are found at the Kawarau and Shotover rivers near Queenstown. The Buller river near Westport, the Waiatoto river near Haast, the Wilkin river in Mt Aspiring National Park and the Dart river are excellent locations for jet boating.
In the North Island of New Zealand, the top jet boating locations are found at Waikato, Whanganui and Rangitaiki and Motu rivers. The Agrodome in Rotorua has sprint jets and so also at Waitomo. A trip to the Hole in the Rock is a great jetboating ride around the Bay of Islands in Northland.
