Hamilton Jet - Waterjet
The HamiltonJet waterjet is one of the
most advanced and innovative marine propulsion systems in use
today, and is at the forefront of waterjet propulsion
technology.
HamiltonJet pioneered the development of the modern waterjet system over 50 years ago, adapting technology initially designed for shallow river operation to suit all manner of inshore and offshore vessels, and in doing so discovering a wide range of advantages waterjets have over other forms of propulsion.
The HamiltonJet Waterjet is particularly suited to high speed
vessels operating in the 20 to 50 knot range, but can also be
successfully used in displacement speed vessels in certain
situations.
It is important to understand that waterjet propulsion operates quite differently to conventional propeller propulsion systems. This results in many advantages, along with a few disadvantages, when compared to propellers for any particular application. Anyone considering waterjets needs to understands how they work and how best to set up a vessel to make best use of this superior propulsion technology.
Whiting Power Systems is a certified service agent for Hamilton Jet.
Waterjet DNA = Creation + Innovation + Evolution
Since 1954 HamiltonJet has been working with vessel designers and builders to create waterjet propulsion systems which deliver optimum performance and efficiency.
HamiltonJet pioneered the development of the modern waterjet over 50 years ago, and the company continues its innovative traditions today. Constant design improvements, driven by an active research and development program, keeps HamiltonJet at the forefront of waterjet technological evolution.
HamiltonJet mastery is creating superior waterjet propulsion systems suitable for commercial applications, workboats, patrol and military craft, and pleasure boats. Today, waterjets are the preferred propulsion choice where high efficiency, outstanding manoeuvrability, shallow draft capability and low maintenance are key requirements.
