About

Biography of legendary New Zealander Bill (C.W.F.) Hamilton.

His talent for invention and love of boats developed at an early age and he grew up to be a high country farmer, racing driver, engineer, and - almost by accident - the first man to make the jet-propulsion of watercraft a practicality.

Today his patented marine jet propulsion invention that still bares his name is synonymous within the international marine industry.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome images.

Includes an Irishman Creek visitors program souvenir.

Remarks

Scarce with the souvenir.
