F.A.Q.

1. How many liters of diesel oil do parasailing boats consume for one flight?

Fuel consumption varies depending on the boat's engine power and bottom structure, the current wind condition, weight of the flyer, and the quality of the parachute you use. However, the most important factor for consumption is the wind condition. In weather with average wind, a turbine jet boat with a Yanmar 370HP engine, consumes approximately 3 litres of diesel fuel per flight. In areas where the wind is good, consumption amounts to less than 1 litre per flight.
