Building the Future of Electric Boating

ZeroJet is on a mission to eliminate outboard emissions by creating the world’s best electric jet propulsion systems for small boats.

From humble beginnings experimenting with electric jetboards, the company has evolved into a category-defining marine tech startup, bringing clean, silent performance to the water.

Headquartered in Auckland, ZeroJet has designed and built the world’s lightest electric jet tender and is now scaling production of its powerful 15kW electric jet system. The team’s combination of deep R&D expertise, in-house motor development and custom jet pump design has delivered exceptional performance and efficiency for small boat builders across the globe.
