    Hi Thomas, I am an old guy from Holland. We have a lot of water but nothing compared to nature in New Zealand. I also have a sailing boat en without sails and mast we go to the islands and also in shallow waters. I enjoy your videos. You are very handy and very versatile. Keep it up. Greetings from the Netherlands

    Lol man.. thats rough atleast you guys were okay and got the boat out, pretty crazy you found the gopro as well. Those little jet boats look like a load of fun. Im mildly land locked where i live and have 0 welding abilities (my work looks like your manifold(no offense)). However i kinda think i might have to get one.

    I've regularly rafted this river and that particular rapid has produced quite a few unexpected flips at low flows. A bit higher flow is usually better all round

    I made some flat bottom boats that work great in rivers use a longtail motor that just bounces off the bottom. They don’t like rocks though lol. Do you think a jet unit would work ok in a flat bottom boat. Also I work in an engineering workshop and I would like to make the jet unit , would need some advice though!

    just started to watch... looks like the go-pro swamped, with a helo out ?? - Great tunes always, Thomas! relly good. and Not just blow'n smoke here,
    But You gotta Be one of the Best pilots i've seen- Seriously, serious skills. ~ I want you to come state-side and roll-out my (our?) line-up.
    BTW... the reason you swamped, is... yur good bud, is way-slow off the mark. period! I guess he prefers to swim? and suppose he paid half the Helo service, right?
    Which is how much, american usd... for how far, and how low did it take, round trip? thanks brother! Always enjoy your vids!

    • @jlo7770
      @jlo7770 4 місяці тому

      That's what I was thinking. I don't even think I could find a MD500 to do the lift where I live, heli wouldn't even be an option, but pretty cool to see them do it, gotta be a smooth pilot to get the boat out without dragging the heli down.

  • @jonniessink1
    @jonniessink1 4 роки тому +1

    Not boat related, but what brand rotary are you using? My father sells the "roto flo " brand here in the states. The one that floats on water and if i remember the owner is from New Zealand. Oh by the way I watched your videos on how to build a jet boat at least 6 times and its what got me into wanting to build one. Just not money or space to build it right now😖. Any ways like the videos keep them coming please.
