Thanks cobber just found this one. Not a bad trip ,jet boat, trout fishing and small pig wrestling. Love the move when here comes mom from you. Bloody funny. Thanks again mate. take it easy.
Pickel Back Hey mate, It would be possible but pretty hard on the boat, the banks are steep the whole way up the river so launching will be a adventure on its own. There are a few submerged rocks and logs around so you’re prop might be in danger. If you do it let me know how you go, make sure you have a capable mate with you and good luck.
Ajaxaxxess Hey mate, it’s a 3m aluminium wattscraft (NZ) hull with UHMW. Running a 2 stroke Yamaha 700cc from a wave Raider JetSki. It’s a great small boat that is cheap to run compared to anything bigger.
@@Muzz308 Did some math but looking like 3.5 miles per gallon. Were running 780CC Fuji motors. Just finished rebuild of all 3. Will be running 20 gallon tanks (75 liter). On my 225 hp jet i get 1 mpg, lol. So this will be a nice change. Thanks for the info man!
"oh here comes mum" lol the look on his face priceless!!!
Great video chaps. Thank you.
Jet boats and rifles. You guys are more Idahoan than I am, and I live here. I can't think of a better way to spend a day.
Looked like a great day! You need trim tabs to stop your boat from bouncing down the river!

@@Muzz308 What kind of range you getting?
Ajaxaxxess I haven’t got a accurate km per litre, but on a full tank (approximately 50ltrs) I’ve done a 70km trip.
