These Hydro's appeared on Ebay 1 or 2 years ago,
they originally came with a 49cc engine and claiming speeds of over 60mph ( that is Ebay speed ).

some people bought some only to be very very disappointed.

That is the same boat except a different engine was dropped in, a rear wing that would seem to give something else beside down force and them 2 hair dryers on each side.

I think that I just puked in my mouth!
Whatever that boats lacks in ugly, it makes up for loss of speed. That "ducted fan" setup (and I use that term very loosely) would be lucky to help push it down a greased mineshaft.
Even a mother couldn't love anything that ugly........

Ive heard of people getting hit by branches as they fell through the ugly tree, I just never imagined they would make plywood from the same trees.
Of course the advantage of the ducted fans is you could hook some fuel lines to them for some sort of afterburner.
Then hope that it burns to the water line to save you the embaressment of having to own it!

Those "boats" and I use that term very loosely have been around for a while as they were for a while on eBay from the manufacturer. They were butt-ugly then and this one is worse. It seems really confused as to what it is.
I try to be kind about someone's boat but I just find this one difficult to type anything good about it. A Viking funeral would put it out of its misery.

Fill with fuel, lite and sail away. like a viking ship. What happened to that nice looking hull, I commented on a few weeks ago ? At least this one has a top.
