Thanks man! What size is your mini? Its great fun seeing how shallow they will go, definitely recommend some pushing poles, yeah solo trips can be a bit harder
Fark yeah awesome stuff, are you guys running the saco impellers they're really thick blades and you can get double row ones, they last a lot longer before they need building up. Cheers Richard
Hey mate, in most cases a jet boat grill/grate has smaller gaps between rails whereas jet-skis have larger gaps. We still suck up smaller stones sometimes but larger ones get caught.
@@JetBoatLife thank you, I’m thinking about getting a couple of mini jet boats, this has always been my concerns. I just bought two brand new gtx 300. My kids are still very little to use them, got them for customers to use, however I’m wanting to build something together with my little boys. Father son’s time. Thank you for the advise
Alot of jet boat companies here in NZ sell these at many different stages from flat packed all the way to turn key. Another option is the market places selling second hand finished builds 👍🏼 Hull kits can start from $4,000 and up depending on boat size etc
I haven’t worked up the balls to go that shallow. I’m thinking I’ll need a land anchor. My mini has a winch and I’m typically solo. You guys rock

Good video guys, be sure to post up more!
Thanks! We will be posting more especially come summer time
I need one of these boats! I feel you must change impellers like spark plugs in those gravely streams.
The impellers take a bit of a beating for sure, get a few rivers out before they get rebuilt tho
We have mini jet boats for sale like this, do you want it?
animals. i love it.

Im just running a solas, get quite a few rivers out of it before needs rebuilding. Keep a fresh one spare to swap out if needed
rock boating my Fav!!
Love the vid bro, this makes me want to get something similar for the Keys lol keep it up 🫡
Cheers! Yeah great fun
👍🤝💪💪💪
Ha ha love it. You kiwis are a bunch of crazy bastards. That water must be freezing. Greetings from the land of Aus. Cheers Kev.
Cheers Kev! Was a great day, water was definitely cold haha
😂😂😂😂😂😂
One question: how is the engine cooled? It absorbs water directly from the river or how does it do it?
Yeah engines cooled by water through intake. Not sure how exactly, have a sand trap so stop junk etc getting through lines
How do y’all prevent sucking up rocks? I’ve got my jets skis sucked up rocks deeper than that?

its clear water, were are you guys at?
This run was up the Dobson/Hopkins river
Time for new impellers
For sure haha there was a bit of slip coming back down the river
Ребят, у вас вообще на таких реках есть рыбалка?😂 Или вы просто гоняете. Тачки крутые у вас🤝🤝🤝
I bet the jet prop is GREAT CONDITION must be wearing with stones so bad!😮
There wasn’t the same punch out of the water at the end of the day 😂
How do you not suck in rocks being in that shallow of water?
Momentum haha can’t slow down, but there was a fair bit of pushing back into deeper water that day
Looks a lot like where Im at in Alaska
What do I need to build one of these?

I would like to see the bottom of the boat.
Surprisingly no damage yet 🤞🏼
I'm not going to lie. I just want to fly fish that river. 😅
Not sure many fish were left hanging around after we went up 😂😅
How many trout did you suck up? 🤣
Bitta sushi 😂
