Jetboating

Jetboating is invented by a New Zealander. The jetboat is very easy to turn and is steered by directing water stream out of the boat. This stream got in the boat by an inboard motor that sucks, by means of a tube, water in the bottom of the boat. For more comprehensive information about these boats: http://en.wikipedia.org.

The Kawarau River is an example of a good jetboat place on the southern island (Otago & Southland). On the northern island the Whanganui River (Wanganui & Wellington) is an excellent place to jetboat.
