Gale Banks Turbocharged Engines Dominate Jet Boat Racing
In a display of sheer dominance, Gale Banks powered jet boats clinched the top 5 spots at the grueling 1978 New Zealand Citizen Jet Boat Marathon, an 11-day, 1000-kilometer race. This victory marked the second consecutive marathon win for Reg Benton, who also triumphed at Canada’s Great Smokey Marathon just months prior. Banks’ turbocharged engines proved their reliability and power, propelling Benton to a staggering one-hour lead over the competition.
This win wasn’t an isolated incident. Throughout 1976-1980, Gale Banks powered jet boats achieved a remarkable five consecutive world championships, solidifying their position at the forefront of boat racing. This 1978 New Zealand Marathon victory was just one of three international triumphs for Banks in just three months. Learn more about Gale Banks’ innovative marine engines and their racing legacy.
