The Experience
Your experience starts with a briefing on safety and handling, then your instructor will take you out onto the water and show you exactly what this craft can do, hitting big air jumps wherever possible. Then, depending on the weather and at the instructor's discretion, you may even take the helm, open up the throttle and power out into open water. With a RIB powerboat acting as the support boat, powered by a 225hp engine, you get the added bonus of an exhilarating ride on this whilst off the Zap Cat.
