The performance of the waterjet system of a patrol boat has been experimentally studied. A waterjet propulsion system has many advantages comparing with a conventional screw propeller especially for high speed craft because of its good cavitation performance. This paper describes experimental procedure and analysis method of self-propulsion tests with a 1/12-scale model. Experimental results were analyzed according to ITTC 96 standard method. The full-scale effective power and delivered power of the ship were also analyzed and the full-scale speed predicted from the model test compares reasonably with the measured full-scale results of the sea trial.
