Is this silly

[Csail]

I have taken redundancy from fixing fighter jets , finished the yacht project,hovercraft,dinghy & house build nearly sorted but fancy putting wings on the power boat just for a trial and error project.Need something more to keep me sane.

 

[MoodySabre]

Voluntary work?

It might not help with the sanity but it'll keep your feet on the ground.

A couple of canards should do the business...
They would need to be under computer control so that when or if , you are just above the water the autopilot will have some control of the boat... /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Any one know what happened to the guy who had a small jet engine and gyro copter on a dory? I had a chat with him one day and he showed me his designs for cross channel ferry versions, interesting chap!

Not the one you are talking about, but have a look here for some brilliant applications of gas turbines. Some of the videos are remarkable.

Sell the house, the hovercraft, the dinghy and the yacht.... buy a big blue water yacht and head off into the sunset /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Turn it into a WIG

I reckon WIG racing would be great - something like Reno but at 20ft
