Jet Boat 1

Next Previous (Up)

The bridge near the start of our jet boat trip. This starts on the Kawarau River and then joins up with the Shotover. The river is quite deep and is a good place for spectacular turns. The boat only needs 3 or 4 cm of water when running at speed but requires 1 to 2 meters to get started. Its quite important to make sure that its only stopped in deeper water beacause at over 4 tons it would take a lot of pushing to get to deep water again!
