Psst, what\'s that for?

Would you spend £4,000 on one if you knew what it was/did? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Theres a theme park in Carmarthensire that has a load of these on a Pond. good fun once you master the art of not just revolving on the spot until you dissapear up your own exhaust /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Re: Psst, what\'s that for?

Thats a huge engine for such a small craft - and where's the steering wheel?

I guess you lean to turn.
For £4K I could have a real yacht. In fact for a 1/3rd of that I got one. For 18th of that my brother in law got a small MOBO.

There's one born every etc etc.

Obvious! It's the tender for the forum-designed yacht.

Circraft


This new circular craft is capable of aqua-planing at unbelievable speeds
A completely new concept in pleasure boating!
The Circraft can be powered by a variety of outboard motors, reaching speeds of 40 to 45 mph.
Steering is by movement of body weight. Lean to the left, she goes left, lean to the right, she goes right.
The Circraft experience can be enjoyed by people of all ages and is capable of carrying two people.
It can even pull a water skier.
The circular craft is made out of fibre glass and weighs 242lbs
The Circraft, which is 7ft in diameter, comes in a variety of colours. It is weighed down by two water skis at the rear which make the hull lift up out of the water so the craft aqua-planes
On flat, calm water, it feels like you're flying - but most people like choppy waters which makes it a more exciting ride. It's an unforgettable experience and a licence to thrill

It would be interesting to see a video. I had a look but as yet have not found anything.

Re: Psst, what\'s that for?

These were on the market many many years ago - I vaguely remember seeing them, possibly at an Earls Court Show in the 70s.

You're not looking hard enough. The video is the drawing, just press forward
Circraft

I thought you're supposed to have a look out when towing a skier?

Re: Psst, what\'s that for?

From the first shot I thought the steering wheel was out of all proportion, then saw it was just some safety cage to hold to as you rocketted away with no steering and no brakes.

Agree with others, clearly the dinghy for the forum designed cruiser.
