Jet Boat Specifications

The Jet Boat is designed for speed and maneuverability. A shallow hull and lightweight materials aid in giving the boat incredible stability. The Shearwater Jet is fitted with 2 x 230HP inboard Steyr Marine Dieself type 246’s with Hamilton HJ212 Waterjets, with Turbo impellers and dry run bearings. The hull is reinforced with Kevlar and is divided into watertight divisions so as to allow for the complete flooding of any one division, whilst maintaining its stability. The Jet is fitted with a self-righting mechanism - a permanently inflated buoyancy device – resulting in the ability to right the vessel by one person.

The engines are specially designed to minimize potentially harmful emissions and are EU approved for use on inland waters throughout Europe. The engines are also housed in a special sound absorbing enclosure so as to minimize noise pollution.

The boat can hold a maximum of 12 people and three crew.
