Jet sprinting, popular over in NZ and Australia. Do a search, lots of info.

Thanks Smoothie got lost on the site for an hour, and like Hyper I did some searching on the pumps. A few years ago I got a little interested in one called the Kodiak, some of these things get very good efficiency Its a simple looking drive line. I've had short drives in a few, was not thrilled with the low speed handling.

I was interested in those jet spring boats a while back. They look like a blast. I have seen footage of the rolling over and just keep going.

I just wonder how they handle rough water. How fast do you think they go, running through creeks they look fast, but open water has to be a bit different.

I don't know they seem to like a lot of "AIR!" (http://www.harbercrafteagle.com/EagleRacing/RMedia/16Teaser.avi)

Hello all,

This is actually what our boats are created to do. The jumping that you see in our videos and pictures is what 16' adventure boating is all about. The hulls did not take on any damage from any of the 'stuff' u see in those videos. Currently our 16' Sprort boats can hit the hi 60's. (mph)
