Belassi launch the ultimate watercraft in New Zealand
Belassi is proud to announce an exciting new beginning in Australia and New Zealand with its unrivalled range of personal watercraft, including two of the most powerful jet skis in the world, the stand up B3S ski and the B3R Sports musclecraft.
The Austrian based company has ignited a new era of design, performance and reliability in jet skis with the B3S and B3R range. Each model has been meticulously engineered with premium components and optional racing extras to make Belassi jet skis the preferred choice over traditional brands.
Fitted to the lightweight jet skis is the Belassi patented 3 cylinder 4-stroke I3C16™engine, with power outputs starting from the 180 hp stand up ski and going up to the range topping turbocharged 315 hp musclecraft. Italian forged pistons, con rods and crankshaft are used amongst other high end components such as the inter-cooler used in the BMW M5 and Bosch electronics. Even the jet propulsion is handled by robust Belgian made actuators for forward thrust, reverse and braking.
Other technical features of the range include Dynamic Brake System DBS™, Variable Trim VETS™, Electronic Reverse ERev™, Compression Molded High Performance Composite CMHPC™ hull, adjustable sponson, splash deflector and much more.
Belassi finish quality and ergonomics are also exceptionally high for each model with a focus on rider comfort and performance. Ergal handlebars with co-molded comfort grips are used across the range and the B3R models include five angle settings to accommodate different driver styles. The B3R ride is one of the best in class helped by Italian designed race contoured seats featuring watertight seams and aluminium handles, and an integrated front splash deflector to keep riders dry.
The contemporary and organised multifunctional backlit LCM dashboard perfectly compliments the sophisticated B3R models. It gives direct control of the jet ski functions such as the Sport/Wake/Eco power modes, trim position and cruise control. A GPS system also comes standard providing reliable speed and position information, which is great for setting locations for friends to meet whilst out on the water.
Belassi jet skis are not only a technical tour de force, they have the performance to match and a distinctive style that sets them apart as exotic european sports watercraft. Whether you are out blasting across the bay, jumping waves with friends, towing a family member on a wakeboard or racing through a course, Belassi is designed to deliver each moment with exhilaration.
From November 2014, Belassi will offer the B3S, B3R Pure, B3R Dynamic and the B3R Sport in various colour options in Australia and New Zealand. The distributor Urban Moto Imports (UMI) is also the exclusive distributor of five premium motorcycle brands including EBR (Erik Buell
Racing), Benelli, Bimota, Confederate and Viper. UMI’s CEO Joseph Elasmar believes the arrival of the Belassi brand in Australia and New Zealand is great timing. “Australians and New Zealanders expect greater quality now more than ever in an age where the market is inundated with choice. However the demand for better quality watercraft has been for a long time a request manufacturers could not answer, until now. Belassi represents a departure from the current market trend by designing watercraft that are engineered to perfection with an amazing array of technology and distinctive Italian style. In addition to having the world’s most powerful watercraft, we think the choice is now clear that if you want the best, then Belassi should be at the top of your list.”
