Called the JetLev-Flyer, the German design can purportedly reach a height of 50 feet, a speed of 45 mph and — wait for it — a range of 300 kilometers, or 186 miles, based on four hours of flying time.

Just imagine how you could DUST your buddies....wrap the hose around their boat and then crash...LOL:D

Wonder what the Coast Guard would think of it. "Can I see your registration and life jackets....yeah you up there, and stop spraying water on me!"
