SHUTTLE CRAFT of TEXAS, Inc announces today, the sale and distribution of an innovative new product in TEXAS and LOUISIANA. This product manufactured in Canada redefines the use of personal watercraft. The product name is "SHUTTLE CRAFT", this product turns your jetski into a full sized jet boat for family enjoyment. Shuttle Craft Of Texas, Inc is the primary distributor for this product throughout Texas and Louisiana, initial marketing is slated for the Houston, Texas and Shreveport, Louisiana areas and followed by marketing development in San Antonio, Texas; Austin, Tx.; Corpus Christi, Tx.; Beaumont, Tx.; Dallas, Tx.; Baton Rouge, La. and Lake Charles, La. Shuttle Craft of Texas, Inc. is a Texas Corporation formed to distribute and sell this innovative new product. President Ken Kirchoff says, "We plan to show and demonstrate the Shuttle Craft throughout Texas and Louisiana this year and offer jetski owners a great new alternative for the use of their personal watercraft." The Shuttle Craft is offered in basically three models to choose from. The Sport Deck model is an eighteen foot model in a tri-hull design that provides room for 5 passengers, this model is a sporty design with a stereo system, cushioned contoured seats and storage compartments, as well as a sun deck that can be used with accessories such as, swivel seats, BBQ grill,and Bimini top. The Jet Sport is a smaller version as a fifteen-foot model in a semi-v design hull that provides room enough for 4 passengers in cushioned contoured seats. This model is available in three styles SCX, SCL, and SC. The style defines how each is equipped; lighting package with stereo system or just plain transportation for 4 people in comfort. While these two models have been in manufacture for about 5 years and have become popular on the east coast and west coast they are now set to be the latest "Fun" on the gulf coast. The year 2000 marks the beginning of manufacture of the new Navigator model in the same sleek Tri-hull design as the Sport Deck. The Navigator is designed in a fashion of a bass boat providing a roomy deck for fishing and other watersport activities including skiing, etc. Once a jetski is docked with a Shuttle Craft it is , for all practical purposes, a jet boat and the performance characteristics are very close to the same. The Shuttle Craft requires less than the usual depths of water so, it can be a useful craft in the shallows for fishing, etc. The Shuttle Craft works with any manufacturer of jetskis, while the 15-ft. models require a specific rail assy. for a specific model jetski, the 18ft. models are adjustable for various types and models of jetskis.
Manager of Sales and Distribution, Jack Wheeless says, to jet ski owners, " Dont sell that Jetski just yet !!", "a Shuttle Craft, while enhancing the use of your jetski,, it also enhances your investment in your jetski ". Mr. Wheeless continues to say, " While annual sales nation wide have been less than a thousand, we expect these two Gulf Coast states to more than double that figure in sales". "The potential market in Texas and Louisiana has not been touched and our plan to get this product out in the public and visible over the course of year 2000 should prove to be a very challenging task". Recently this product received rave reviews and an award for "Most Innovative Product" at the Paris, France Annual Boatshow. It is truly an international product and here in the states environmental laws are making it more and more difficult for jetski owners on freshwater lakes, the Shuttle Craft has received documentation from the Texas Parks and Wildlife that when a jetski is docked with a Shuttlecraft, it is, by definition a motorboat, and those proposed regulations for jetskis nolonger apply ( as long as the two are docked together). An additional feature is that the trailer provides your jetski the rails also, so, it will trailer as a jet boat as well. Your jetski can be launched separately or as a single craft with the Shuttle Craft. Once in the water the jetski can be disengaged for separate entertainment then re-engaged ( docked) for group entertainment and transportation.
