Hamilton Jet HamiltonJet 151

The HamiltonJet 151 is one of New Zealand’s most popular and proven recreational jetboats. Its narrower hull combined with turned-down chines delivers excellent grip in sharp turns and a dynamic, responsive feel on the water. A larger, more pronounced bow contributes to the boat’s sprint-boat-like appearance and handling, appealing to drivers who prioritize performance.

If outright performance is your primary requirement, the HJ151 is positioned as the model of choice within the HamiltonJet recreational range.
