They are from the outside because of the two Allison turboshaft engines used to drive the pump jets on the rear foils. But from the inside it sounds more like a passenger jet...and because it's a hydrofoil, the ride is just as smooth at full speed.
The Boeing Military Patrol Hydrofoils (converted from this vessel) on their maiden voyages, despite design and production changes would develop a small crack on their forward bulkhead (not the civilian version). The crack was welded, with no reoccurrence. ;-) I was able to sit in the Captains seat aboard one (on shore). ;-)
Singapore 🇸🇬 Harbour Front centre and Tanah Mera Ferry Terminals Are deep enough to handle any high speed crafts such as this Boeing Kawasaki Jet Foil high speed craft as shown.
We had one run out of Seattle on Puget Sound for a few years. We have a turbine powered cat doing the same run between Seattle and Victoria, Canada now.
Almost makes you think that future we all dreamt about in 65 had arrived. Hydro to the Shuttle Port then to International Space Station 4 to Lunar Base Armstrong then to the international Mars Colony. Then to the Astoroid mines. Preparing to explore the Jovian moons next.
I was thinking on those river cities like Cincinnatti why they don't have hydrofoil taxis that can drop people downtown from the burbs and you miss all the traffic
less than a standard ferry would running at normal load, actually. Once up on the hydroplane runners it can be anywhere from a 70-90% efficiency versus the 10-30% of a normal ferry. Efficiency being the drag coefficients
I rode old Soviet-built hydrofoils on Adriatic - very comfy, and noise is like in a bus. They are in use around the world - see "Hydrofoil" on Wikipedia (no links here, it would seem...)

It takes an hour on this ship to get between Macau and Hong Kong. Ride on this thing a couple times. Truth, this thing is pretty comfort and fast. Just saying :)

They run between Hong Kong and Macau for nearly 30 years (now maybe other destinations). Already part of every day life there. Filled with gamblers hoping to turn millionaires :-) Good quality and stable video. Did you shoot that from another Jetfoil back terrace?
Correct me if I am wrong, but was there a Jetfoil service between London and Ostend? Seeing this video made me recall a photo of one travelling down the river Thames.
Between Dover and Ostend, search for "Jetfoil Oostende". The RMT (Regie voor Maritiem Transport) used 2 Boeing 929 jetfoils, the Princesse Clementine and Prinses Stephanie from 1981 till 1997 (see Wikipedia). The Clementine is still (2017) active as the "Seven Island Niji.". Flying with these jetfoils was sensational, especially the lift-off. If you were used to slow cumbersome ferries where you would see the harbour and still have time to take breakfast and tour the ship for pictures before docking this was quite a different experience, you were in Dover before you realised it. This ship had to brake pedal-to-the-floor or it would miss Dover and end up in Folkestone..
Why are jetfoils or outboard/hydrofoils not more common? One would think the extended range and speed advantages would make them a HUGE commercial success, and yet, they seem fairly rare? Why IS that? Seriously, I want to know.
Speed, yes. Range, uhhhhhh, no. Boats like this chew fuel at rates many times faster than smaller, slower boats. Jet boats are designed for shorter routes. Generally 30 miles are less. They're intended for use as large "water taxis", on routes that large number of people need to traverse. They're a technology that competes extremely well against flights, since there's no way a person can take a commercial flight in a shorter time, due to all the time spent on airport arrival/checkin/boarding/taxiing/flight time/deboarding time combined. Not to mention, these boat rides are a fraction of the price of a flight on the same route. In fact, only a helicopter can compete with these boats, and that would be far more expensive.

I went in one of this from Macau to HK, and Boy are they smooth and fast. When the sea is chopy you wish to be in one of these beautys
yes, sailing with Macau to Hong Kong,sailing time about 1 hour,service speed about 42-45 knots
very impressive camerahand you have there, thank you for the video
Tq
That must rip through fuel to be flying like that!

@@ariskakarunia2612 ik heb geen idee wat dat betekend, maar dank je wel :)
Wow, something so big, fangin it like that.. Truly impressive.
The application of good technology for the world of shipping, hopefully it will provide more comfort and safety 👍👍
When I was in Australia they were all over the Sydney harbor. I've never seen one in the US. They are very cool

Hydrofoils are cool.
its a jet, its a plane, no its a jetfoil!
Xin chào bạn..tàu chạy vận tốc khá cao nhìn thân tàu rất ổn định🌾👍🇻🇳
Boeing is always the best.
Ni nzuri sana kwa kwetu pemba inatufaa

I remember when they used to run these between Dover and Ostend, used to take around 2 hours.Great fun.

Nice video. Beautiful to look at. On my river there have been no hydrofoils for years.

When a plane company makes a boat, it has to fly.
not necessary u dumb
Kebir Ouch SHUT THE FUCK UP

I need to get one of these for Ferry service in the Gulf of Mexico

CONOCIDO COMO EL JET FOIL
Never seen one in the USA, very cool. 😎
It was long long ago operated in Hawaii!
The Jetfoil uses the principle of lift created by ocean waves just like Aeroplane wing concept.

riga latvia had these on the daugava river in 90s public transportation.
nice video....
i rode one of that in Hong Kong! going to MAcau its a great experience,
Sorry, aviation OCD over here, it's Kai Tak. Nice job with the recognition of the high rises to determine the location of this video.
actually jetfoils use convection to glide on top of the water so they dont really use as much as it may seem
They need to have these on Deadliest Catch.

what are the advantage of this technology other than reducing drag and fuel efficiency?
Syed, reduce seasick
Um, perhaps saving time I suppose.
Great video.
I saw these in Sydney ...long time ago.
Hong Kong?
so is this considered flying or sailing
Jó kis gép !!
AMAZING
It's like a flying boat in the sea
Nice video
That thing is burning a loooooottttttttt of fuel.
we had these all over the upper Puget sound in the seventys
they sold them all because of age and upkeep
+slomo rico I worked sea trails in Puget sound on these boats back then best job I ever had
wow! incredible ...is possible avoid the enormous water resistance with used hydrofoil
Россия учись как люди делают. для людей
Вова я смотрю ты везде комментов про Россию подна(ср..)писал? Россия уже делает такие, олух.
The claims are it can reach speeds of 70 mph plus however the best ride is around 53 with the best flue consumption
So bloody fast !
I hadn't though of that, that may be a valid point, but on the other hand, above those foils is STILL a fully capable ship. Just sayin'.
Super boat

Hey that's Hong Kong, the jetfoil service from Hong Kong to Macau
Its a boat that identifies as a airplane. 2018 problems lol
@verderider597 It's fast and stable
Boeing has been building hydrofoils since the 60's.
40s actually
20s actually
@danpeterson6
may be 40-45knots

awesome ! :)
This is the future if people plan on not wasting fuel on polishing ships belly with tonnes of water.
je veux aussi un bateau comme celui lâ !!!
is it really loud?
How much is the price for that kind of ship or what you call for that im sorry.
That is 100% Correct, just look at the flag on the stern or bow of the ship.
How much boeing 929 jettfoil
The world's largest waverunner.
Unsinkable?
its 4:40 and I'm here. Win.
Cool stuff at 2:00
We used to have one from Belgium to England across a sea?
is that the boat from enter the dragon?
does anyone know the speed of the foil? thanks
It's 4 o'clock in the morning. how did I get here?
so it is 4 in the morning and how did you get here?
the same way I got here at 6:50 pm 4 months later
That so cool man I going to make that can you tell me how did they make that?
Dit is ÉCHT vet :D .. Waarom hebben wij hier niet van die dingen in NL.
What is the speed?
43knots
Where is this taken from?
It built by Boeing at 1975!
@nanshaferry seemed to me about 45-50 knots; thanks, anyway
How fast can it go? from NY to England? like a 24 hour ride?
The tank can’t enough!
RUclips has a "new" stabilize feature. Try it
it's fast and the weather is awful on this day.
Wow
I bet it's pretty economical to run and maintain.
Sweet
สวย
Hauling commuters and making sushi in its wake.
Can anyone tell me if there is boat like this for sale?
How many knots per hour?
45
AHHH! who are you guys! were star fox!!
Convection?
IS THAT PLABOAT
Well, apparently you like to look at cool shit in the wee hours of the morning.
very great view. like + subsc
James Bond's?
which City is behind?
hong kong
nice thanks )
355am Hawaii time how did I get here as we'll
how is that even possible
Would that be the Star Ferry?
Tosk!
Looks like the first comment also made the first fail ! Nice vid btw.
