Broker's Comments

The YellowJet-Taxi is an ideal tool for the marine tourism industry, whether it is running a water taxi service, corporate advertising or providing sight seeing trips. These purpose built passenger ribs will certainly grab every ones attention.

YellowJet-Taxi is based on a proven RIB design and built to Lloyds structural specification and is designed for 10 passengers and one crew.

Power is by the VW TDi Marine 150 Hp inboard engine which pushes it along at a good pace with good fuel economy. Coupled with the Water Jet drive, the YellowJet-Taxi becomes a remarkably manoevrable and nippy boat.

Being trailerable means it can be taken out of the water for cleaning, servicing or moved from venue to venue.

This rugged, reliable, quality vessel is a good business opportunity that should earn its keep in fare paying passengers and advertising revenue.

YellowJet-Taxi is also available as a 9.0 m version designed for 18 passengers and two crew.
