Outboards
Tohatsu Outboard with Waterjet Pump
We have found the Tohatsu 50hp outboard with waterjet pump to be the ideal engine for our 470 inflatable hull boat.
Not only is it more than powerful enough to get a full boat load upstream in even the most challenging conditions but, as a smaller engine, it also helps to keep the total weight of the boat down - leaving more capacity for your catch!
We currently offer two outboard options with our inflatable jet boats which come fitted with waterjet pumps:
50hp 2-Stroke
Tohatsu 2-strokes are world famous for their reliability, impressive horsepower-to-weight ratios and top-of-the-line performance. This in-line 3-cylinder outboard provide all of the extra features you want and need without compromising Tohatsu's well-known quality.
50hp 4-Stroke
The 50hp 4-stroke outboard has variable idling speed control from 650 to 950rpm’s. And the stainless steel water pump housing liner gives you outstanding durability. The 50hp 4-stroke is powerful enough to quickly reach your destination, exceptional fuel performance to keep gas costs down and proven electronic fuel injection technology for worry-free boating.
We can also source other outboard engines on request. Just hit the Enquire Now button to let us know what you need.
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.
I’ve never known such a fun boat as these and if you get stuck on the bottom just get out drag it to deeper water and you’re away again , yep it’s that simple and they don’t break the bank to own one . 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.
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.

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.
