Building a 3.4m with 260 ultra supercharged engine currently. Looking at heading to NZ to see what real jet boating is in March 2023, really looking forward to it. The scenery is unmatched.
What a beautiful place!! Crystal clear blue water with clear blue skies makes me wish I was there.
me to, time and money!
We're so licky to have such a beautiful country.
THE MUSIC KILLED IT......
It's called a volume knob. 🙂
You’re so lucky to live in such a beautiful country where you’re able to do that. Here in Britain we’d end up in prison if the anglers didn’t get to you first.
Great videos and I’m frankly jealous. Living the life and may it continue. Best wishes from Wales🏴
Thanks, A lot of the jetboaters are fishermen as well. Theirs some issues here, but mostly there's practical rules that allow fair use by everyone
Congrats on making a video that pushed me to buy my first river jet boat... cheers
Great,l hope you enjoy it
I always enjoy your clips Paul.
Cheers

At the end of the day wouldnt mind kickin back and havin a few Foster's on that beach by the fire..

did enjoy it,thanks.
I have hundreds of used agri-plastic,plastic tubes available if anybody wants a few of them.
gold coin donation to Malvern Lions and we can sort something out.
💥AWESOME!!💥🇺🇸
Looks like the big boats are getting stuck in water we in the outboard powered rubber ducks would call good deep water😇
Just buy a Hovercraft, then you wouldn't need water at all, And you'd go faster
@@PaulMcBreen Ha!! Yes, there's that. Seems there's always compromises when finding the perfect boat for exploring in
@@Motumatai3 yep, my wife said "sell the wee boat and keep the V8" when we went to a 1 boat household. It seems sound and comfort are quite important as well. Wasn't a hard decision, although 2 boats are better than one 🙂
@@PaulMcBreen Yes, got a lake boat and the inflatable. Was at a JBNZ meeting a month ago, and the chair asked the floor for a show of hands re who's got an inflatable. About 25-30% put their hands up😯
Another good one Paul, I really need to join the club and come out one day...
You can come to an event as a potential member, but joining means you get a lot more benefits than the membership fee.
@@PaulMcBreen Thanks Paul, I think I'll join up fully. If there is another set speed event during the Taieri uplifting (a good easy entry) I'll come along.
@@nzstato yep Taieri will be a yearly event, The Otago Rally also has a very sort after speed trophy
Paul.. I blame you.. Watching these videos got me to shell out $20k for an 11ft minijet avenger hall w/ 215hp rotax.. I live in Michigan.... It's not the same as your video's! damn people and docks and no wake zones.... still fun... but doesn't live up to the expectations you set.... damn Arse! PS.. awesome video..
Has Michigan got any good rivers? plenty of water around in lakes. Of course, you could save $20k and sat at home and watched video's of someone else having fun.... not that much joy in that compared to having your own beast! got a couple more video's coming soon. cheers
@@PaulMcBreen we have ton's of rivers.. just most of them have house's on some stretch so it's "no wake" within 100' of any dock. Bottoms of rivers are more silt than sand. Love my beast "the dirty hooker" just gotta vary the rivers to keep the homeowners from calling the DNR about a crazy man in a river that no one has taken a boat down before..
@@jasonpatnoude2836 We have a 5 knot restriction on all rivers unless Jet Boating New Zealand has obtained an uplifting, so I know your pain. Good luck and good boating
@@PaulMcBreen what are you running for motor and pumps in your boats?
@@dandeleeuw7024 I run an LS and Scott unit, but have had Jetski powered boat before, People run all sorts of pumps and motors, Typical is a V8 and Scot or Hamilton, but there are a lot of minijets around.
First LIKE ! :-)
Why are all the new zealand boats so small? Is it because you can't tow bigger boats on the roads there? Here in canada boats that are a little bigger with a wider bottom are more popular. They don't go as fast because they are bigger and wider but that helps them stay on plane slow and turn really sharp. Im just wondering because I've never seen a stand up drive boat in and new zealand videos
Different and smaller rivers would be the main reason. we spend a lot of time in the tight stuff. Also, Big boats are hard to push when you run aground
Hi Paul thanks for sharing another adventure. Can I ask what was that little crystal clear stream called?
Beans Burn
I’m interested to see what Intake grate you are running ? Do you have any issues with the rocks? The rocks here in Washington state have clogged me three times this year.
Hi, I just have the Standard Scott jet grill, I usually empty it out after a days boating like this, Never really gotten blocked right up. If your starting in shallow water, or scrapping a bit, turn the motor off and restart in deep water, this gives the stones sucked onto the grill and any sand a chance to fall off/out of the intake. pretty standard thing to do, especially if you've just pulled away from the bank
Beautiful plz guide me how can I bring this in Pakistan
What kinda pumps do these boats have,? Hamilton looked like one of them
all sorts, Hamilton & Scott most common
nice vid, how did you find the ladder was it made out of baleage pipe or something else? a lot lighter than a magic carpet but do yu reckon it works as good?
Hi, yes made from the baleage pipe, seemed to work ok, better than nothing. one of them snapped in half. rollers are better I think, but rollers aren't much good when theres only 2 of you. On flat going I think they would work very well. I'll have to get badly stuck one day to really test them LOL
