Using the latest in jet boat technology including self-draining
decks, Thunder Jet's innovative Mackcraft jet boats cannot
technically be submerged, purportedly making them the safest
ever built.
Thunder Jet 3 is self-draining and positive buoyant with
seven sealed independent buoyancy compartments and
specialised passenger seating arrangement with all round
cushioning. It also contains a tough durable roll-bar or arch
exceeding Maritime New Zealand safety and tumble crush
requirements, sturdy handholds, comfortable feet braces and
a range of top of the line safety equipment from collapsible
oars and boat hook, as well as LED navigation lights, flares,
anchor, throw bag and first aid. A VHF marine radio with alloy
flames as speaker covers.
The added specialised features include a driver's compartment
that has been modified somewhat by the Thunder Jet drivers,
offering comfort, usability, uniqueness in instrumentation and
driver's position layout.
The driver's seat has been manufactured and especially
designed to handle the rough days on the lake, with an added
lift up/down armrest to assist in sideways stability to the driver
against "G" forces, along with a handy glove compartment.
Next to the driver's seat is a built-in stowage area for the
excess of bow line, doubling as a driver's drink holder for the
busy days. The wheel is lightweight with an alloy shine.
Thunder Jet 3 contains a state of the art sound system, pumped
up via 2x2000w amplifiers and played extremely loudly through
11 10x6 inch speakers.
It's all part of the package to deafen the screams of enjoyment
from fellow passengers, and just so you don't feel embarrassed
