Is this prop or jet driven? You could make a lot more speed and efficiency with a prop.

@redbarronxxi It is a semi-ducted propellor. You are correct, a jet is too innefficient

Very Cool electric ski. My wife said it looks like a big slipper! It has to start somewhere. The "haters" totally don't get the point. Electric doesn't perform? Have you seen the Tesla roadster? T-zero? Electric Ariel Atom? 200+ mile range and smokes Corvettes and Ferrari s in the quarter mile. Yes, they are expensive and experimental but I remember the first VCR's were like $900.00. Capacitors will replace batteries and they will charge in 5-10 minutes, weigh a fraction and last 10 years +

Yes, this is the attitude that will get things done and make this a seedo killer. Of course, the first few tries at new things will not be as good as the status quo. That's almost by definition. Given the advances that's going to happen in batteries in the next five years, this will be a good machine. As it is, it is fun and useful.

PS - it did not stall at 1:15. It works as described - I am an engineer and not given to wild claims.

fish will be happy, saudi's will aim to kill you, keep your eyes open for submarines, torpedo's and sneaky creeps that will try to patent what you made so you will never be able to do it again ... once you are out of prison

i will stick to my gas powered stuff. i have a motorized bike that goes 25 mph, and over 100mpg. and the kit was 200 bucks. can" beat the price, range, or power to weight of gas. cool though, will probably last long and no paying for gas

what voltage, what current?

[imthenoid69]

if global warming was real then this would be great. i will stick with my supercharged seadoo that guzzles gas

@lordpeekaboo finally some one who knows what they are talking about. vary well done.

[cazouu36]

25 isnt fast, my gas kawi would smoke that any time

[hanksnow82]

Water + electric = fail

[thecrism1]

i like it what type of batteries??

[nexgeninthemaking]

@redbarronxxi and chop your dick off

[stinkingdog101]

@lordpeekaboo Ohhhh, did I hit a nerve there knucklehead. I don't think your definition of a Hater is correct. But you can go ahead and make up all the stupid definitions you want.....it isn't like anyone is going to call you to the carpet for making stupid remarks about a year old video. LOL Don't cry in front of the kids...it really gives them a complex ,LOL Vulgarity is a sign of an ignorant mind!

[lordpeekaboo]

@stinkingdog101 NO, Commenting on posts that are a year old makes you a douche. I'm arrogant? Who give a Fock what you think? You better look up liberal too. I work for a living. A Hater is a a person that has to go along and make unnecessary random negative comments. Sound familiar? Now piss off.
