South Island Jet Boat Trip 2020

[@paulwalker6297]

This video shows exactly why the 'concept' of the jet boat originated in New Zealand.
A fantastic, amazing invention by Mr.Hamilton 👍 🥰
Here in the UK we had the sadly short lived Dowty Turbocraft and the equalled short lived Jetstar.

Nice video and some good boating, just be aware for next time that there is no uplifting above the Young River confluence and above Kerian forks (National Park)

Thanks for the comment, yea above the fork a couple of the boats only went to the next bridge and turned back after realizing

Wow! Great footage!

[@BlackshacksBushcraft]

Amazing landscape, amazing footage. Curious about the rusty old wreck on the riverbank. It looks too big to have made it's way up the river. What is it and how did it get there? Any idea?
