looks cool and works well as a jet ski.
But it doesn't look like you can beat the crap or ride it hard like a normal 4 wheeler, or you will crack the hull...

Yeah, it looks like a much better jet ski than an ATV. Wheel track is too wide and good luck rock crawling.

In some parts of the country it would be a cool toy.

I didn't like it as a ski either. That hull looks like a rough ride unless the water is real smooth.

I always thought the stream of water shooting up from the back of the jet skis were from the water pump (cooling not the propulsion). I see the same stream from this thing, but certainly can't depend on an open liquid cooling system like a jet ski.

I bet for the price of that thing you could buy an ATV and a jet ski.

The stream of water that shoots up is a Yamaha thing. They do it for visibility. It is just a small 90 degree elbow that is placed in the stream of the output water from the impeller housing. I replaced a broken one on my yamaha jet ski over 10 years ago. It was like 10 dollars for a 2 inch piece of plastic, but I liked being able to spray water up on the bridges after I went under.

007 would have machine guns and rocket launchers... call me when that one is ready.

007 would have hit that big double jump early in the video. When he was approaching that my first though was "wow, this really might be impressive". He slowed down and crawled it though.
