Rolls-Royce is a market leader in mid-sized aluminium
and stainless steel waterjets for small fast craft of
all types, including RIBS, patrol boats and fast landing
craft where shallow draft is vital.
The UK's latest Offshore Raiding Craft are powered by
two Kamewa FF270 waterjets giving a fully loaded speed
of 36 knots. Image courtesy of Holyhead Marine Services
Exceptional manoeuvrability is delivered through the
Kamewa joy-stick control system, it also enables most
boats to 'crash stop' from full speed in very short
distances, for smaller craft it is normally little over
a boats length.
