    "Newest" thing in nautical propulsion, this clever midget boat has no weed-snagging paddles or prop—won't nip unwary fingers.

    I can't figure this one out. How does it work?

    It's like a jet-ski, Mark. There is a pump that pushes the water at high pressure back and that propels the boat forward. Clever design.

    You build the pump from scratch. Pretty neat.

    Cool! Thanks guys this is a really cool design, and with the styrospray we could make the foam water proof! I think we could build this thing as an electric boat..Sweet!
    Anyone going to take on the challenge?

    That impeller housing would be a perfect candidate for the Phlatformer.
