Thunder Jet ships to Yellowknife!

Thunder Jet is proud to announce our first shipment of boats heading up to Yellowknife, NWT, to one of our newest dealers, Yellowknife Motors www.yellowknifemotors.com .
This past weekend a load of three boats, two Eco series outboards and a Falcon, were loaded on to the flatbed trailer of Wayne Tippett, owner of Tippett Transport out of Clarkston, WA. The boats are fully loaded with Mercury power, Cannon downriggers, Standard Horizon GPS, and a host of other bells and whistles.


Two 5,700 # forklifts and many straps required!

Setting up the boats piggy back style we were able to load all three on to Tippett's 50' trailer.
Everything went extremely smooth and within a few hours all three were loaded up and ready to roll. Mr. Tippett arrived with the boats Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012, safe and sound and was officially tickled after his first adventure ice road trucking!

A long and dangerous trek through some of the world's harshest terrain

Making the trek with his partner, Roy Mainwaring, Wayne and Roy were able to make the drive in just over two days one way and delivered the inventory successfully to Yellowknife Motors.
The three boats will be available for immediate sale - for more information contact Greg Boucher at Yellowknife Motors at 867-766-5000 or visit their request a quote page at http://www.yellowknifemotors.com/ContactUs .
Thunder Jet is very excited to have Mr. Boucher and Yellowknife Motors aboard as a new dealer and look forward to many years of business with them in the Northwest Territories!

Adding the final touches to the load and getting ready to hit the road!
