The ClassX 18 Family come from a venerable line of eighteen foot boats with a proven racing heritage -- there is no substitute for experience. Why eighteen feet? Step in one and see how it feels. It's a personal thing. This is a no-nonsence, get-there-quick, look-good sport boat.
Want to humble a tournament skier? Toss them a rope, . . .then nail it. Guaranteed! 90% have never experience the acceleration. Period.
Instant thrust on demand is the key. A marine jet propulsion system can produce (for all practical purposes) instant max-thrust in just about the time it takes for the engine to rev to red-line rpm under a no-load condition. This is because the mix-flow pump absorbs very little horsepower at low RPM's; consequently, the engine is free to quickly rev to the horsepower absorption point dictated by the jet drive's impeller charactristic. This is unlike the slow spool-up typical of an open (i.e., unducted) propeller in water. To learn more about the characteristics of marine jet propulsion, click here.
