470 & 480 Hulls Added to Range

We are so excited to announce that we now have the rights to include the 470 and 480 hulls into our range which has significantly extended our Turnkey Package options plus we will now be building custom trailers for these extra hull sizes as well.

With the addition of these two boats, our range now includes a 470, 475 and 480 hull, all which have the same great features and benefits but with a range a lengths and slightly different configurations to suit your needs.

The shortest hull, our 470, actually has a bigger carrying capacity than our original 475 with the ability to take up to seven people. While the 480 is even bigger again the with ability to take up to eight people per trip.

We still consider the 475 as our ideal all-rounder for those new to this range and jet boating up river. The 475 is your perfect starter boat until your skills and needs increase when you might want to trade up to a 470 or 480 for carrying more people and heavier loads.

Best thing my husband has ever brought! I thought 'oh no it'll mean you'll be out with your mate's 24/7'. But No, it has brought our family closer and we have had many family adventures boating all across New Zealand. Stewart Island, Lake Hauroko, Wairaurahiri River, lake wanaka, the Wilkin, the horomanga, the whirinaki, waimana river, waioweka gorge, rangiteiki river, amongst a few, best purchases ever.

Just a quick email to thank you and your company for the very professional service and correspondence in my purchase of one of your Solar Strela inflatables.

I have completed the two hours on the initial running in at half throttle of the motor and am looking forward to the power that I feel the engine can produce in making a safe trip in the river when I have to open it up. The boat performs probably beyond my expectations in cornering and stopping in a hurry.

You can chalk me up as another one of your happy customers.

There are heaps out there now and most boaties are happy for you to tag along to gain confidence and make new friends , so come on go and buy one and live every day like it’s your last.

On my 2nd Solar 470, upgraded to the new Expedition model. Great service from Gary and Harriet, good stocks of all the consumables that I've needed after 300 plus hours of boating.
Always good to share boating stories with as well.

We recently purchased a solar jet boat from Awajets and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Communication was excellent—prompt, clear, and consistent throughout. The delivery was fast, and everything was handled with professionalism and care. The team walked us through how the boat operates, ensured we understood everything clearly, and tested it to make sure everything was running smoothly. They also provided safety gear, including life jackets for the whole family. Friendly, helpful, and thorough at every stage. We’re incredibly happy with our purchase, thank you Gary, Harriet and workers at Awajets!!!! To any one thinking about it: go get one, you won’t regret it! Highly recommended.

Our package arrived safe and sound I’m wrapped with it. I am going through the run in process and just love the boat. Thankyou for your very professional approach and service, it’s been a pleasure.

I just want to say how happy I am with your Solar Package, especially the awesome trailer. The boat motor and trailer are set up real good. It’s a credit to you all.

My husband and I were privileged to be able to hunt with Gary on his boat and what an awesome experience it was. We were able to penetrate deep into the Ngahere via the river. We quickly accessed the good hunting spots. These spots would normally take a long day of walking to access.

The boat managed the problematic areas of the river with ease and our comfort was not compromised. The boat was more than capable of the payload of 3 people, 3 dogs, and our hunting gear. Not to mention our harvested quarry on the return trip home.

I have been using GT Marine and Alloy services for over 10 years now for all alloy repairs to my truck and trailer units. Their workmanship and service are second to none. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.
