OVERVIEW

Tear through Waitematā Harbor at heart-pounding speeds in a super-charged jet boat that doesn’t just sound exhilarating, it is. The moment you take a tiered seat in the open-air boat and the twin V8 engines roar to life, the thrills will begin in earnest. Prepare to get wet and to scream at the top of your lungs as the high-speed jet boat races off into the harbor. You may want to hang on with both hands because the captain just loves to fishtail the boat and make impossibly tight 180-degree turns. Your adrenaline will be flowing like a fire hose. Then when you least expect it, the captain will stop the jet boat on a dime in a controlled power brake that is sure to raise goosebumps. As you catch your breath, the captain will point out and describe Auckland’s historical landmarks. Then it’s full throttle and pedal to the metal once again.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Race through Waitematā Harbor on a turbo-charged jet boat with twin V8 engines.
