Ellis Express Cruiser 36 Southwest Harbor, ME.

We have been told that the Ellis Boat Company only made one jet propulsion yacht, and this Ellis Express Cruiser 36, “Carry the Zero”, is the one.  Given the difficulty of steering a jet boat at low speeds—especially when docking—the owner wanted to upgrade to a joystick control system for improved maneuverability.  Although this beautiful boat has a unique design without a bow thruster, our chief engineer, Tom Serrao, was able to engineer a solution to give this boat a fresh new system. Carry the Zero received the Control Stick Classic system featuring an updated control panel, an integrated sideways feature, and the improved maneuverability that he was looking for.  This significantly enhances its handling and overall performance making the boat easier to use and making it more fun to be on the water.
