On the day of testing the initial test had 12 passengers on board and achieved 39.5 knots with basic jet settings, then later in the day achieved 41.5 knots with 9 passenger on board and the fine tuning of the jets done. The vessel is fitted with the latest Hamilton AVX Electronic control System with the addition of the Jet Anchor advanced Control System.
