We often use jet boats here in New Zealand to access hunting areas which are well off the beaten track, it also adds another exciting element to the hunt! This particular area in this video is home to Red Deer and a few feral hogs, trophy quality is low so we mainly hunt here for meat, during the fishing season tho the lake and river is home to huge trophy brown trout. The Lake ( Lake Hauroko ) is New Zealand's deepest at 463 meters, it then drains via the the Wairaurahiri river which falls 185 meters over 27 kms to the sea, location Fiordland national park. Video shows a typical trip down the river:

Hand grips for the white knuckle ride!
Must be a Renal Unit at the bottom to help with the Kidney replacements.
 
Beautiful country side, and it looked like the boat ride was a blast. More fun going upstream by the look on the drivers face...:heh::heh::beer:

You have the wrong person. I have no idea what you are talking about..

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
