A boat is a boat right? Not Exactly…
Before I tell you how our specific boat is safer for aquatic life, I'm going to explain the mechanical operations of a typical watercraft and how they impact the habitat of protected species such as manatees and dolphins. Most powerboats on the water are propeller driven. The propeller is a large fan shaped metal component of the engine that sits about 2 feet below the bottom of the boat. The edges of the propeller fan are knife-edged and rotate rapidly to provide propulsion. Unfortunately, these hydrodynamic forces created by propellers are hazardous to manatees and dolphins and have resulted in striking, injury or death. Now let's talk about how the watercraft we operate with is different. The FSH 255 incorporates a state-of-the-art Yamaha jet propulsion system. This propulsion is driven by an impeller, which allows safe, protection of the propeller components inside of a caged pump housing. With no external propeller, the smooth bottom of the watercraft eliminates threat and injury to aquatic life in their natural habitat. Our tours prioritize safety not only for our passengers but also for the local aquatic life. Please read more about the specs of the 2023 Yamaha 255 FSH for additional advantages about jet-propelled watercraft.
