Maybe - If you could build bleacher seats on the water and sell lots of beer. There was a hotel out in Vegas that was going to try to set up an indoor windsurfing course and offer gambling. Don't know what happened to those plans.

: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AP3oJ4htjSY Skinny guys make such awful ballast and counterweights.... My car mechanic has a big Hobie Cat. I've been drown on it a few times. He claims my fat ass raises its speed a good 8 to 12 knots on a windy day...(c; I did get dumped overboard, which caused an immediate nasty broach from lack of counterbalance when my "ballast" parted the harness halyard. When he came back around to retrieve me, he looked as white as a sheet until he saw me laughing so hard I could hardly swim to the boat... (c; I want to try sailing one of these: http://www.youtube.com/results?searc...r&search_type= Hell, the camera power boat can't even keep up with it! |

: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AP3oJ4htjSY I also like the hydrofoil jetski: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wObfl...eature=related "What's the problem, officer?" "You were running 40 mph through the no wake zone." "I wasn't producing a wake, officer. 'No Wake' isn't a speed limit, it's a state of the water." Look at the video...there's no wake at all! |
