Trust me, that's going to be a futile exercise. For the jet drive to work, the back end of the boat MUST STAY IN THE WATER. For a hydroplane to work properly, the back end of the boat MUST FLY ABOVE THE WATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just so you know, all of the full sized hydroplanes built since 1949, starting with the Slo-Mo-Shun III & IV, have been prop riders. This means the rear of the boat is supported by a combination of air going under the hull and the prop.

Now, getting back to my build, I found a couple of issues with some of the parts so I've been fixing them as well as working on my scale Elam Plus trying to solve some radio issues. If all goes well, I'll have pictures posted this weekend
