Hamilton Jet ltx36

Quiet. Efficient. Smart.

The LTX36 is the first in HamiltonJet’s LTX Series—designed to redefine waterjet performance at low to medium speeds. Built with advanced hydrodynamics and a large-diameter, mixed-flow nozzle, the LTX36 delivers unmatched efficiency, powerful thrust, and ultra-responsive handling—all in a compact and lightweight package.

Whether you’re outfitting electric ferries, patrol craft, or hybrid vessels, the LTX36 gives you the best of both worlds: low-speed efficiency and the signature control, safety, and shallow-water access of a HamiltonJet.

Why LTX36 Stands Out

Engineered for Efficiency

  • Supremely high propulsion efficiency at low to mid-range speeds
  • Lower jet velocity = lower energy input = lower fuel/electrical consumption

Exceptional Thrust

  • Up to 40% more bollard pull and superior sway thrust compared to other waterjets—ideal for station keeping, docking, and acceleration

Unmatched Maneuverability

  • Low-wear steering system improves turn performance while reducing helm loads and wear
  • Full AVX control system integration enables precision at all speeds

Electric & Hybrid Ready

  • Fully compatible with all major electric motors and a wide range of diesel engines
  • Direct-drive capable for reduced weight and cost in small vessel applications

Compact, Easy-to-Install Design

  • Compact inboard footprint with integrated hydraulics
  • Optimized for retrofits and late-stage builds
  • Durable, corrosion-resistant materials: marine-grade aluminum, duplex stainless, and CF8M impellers
