Hopefully you never get a foot in the stream. I would think that would rip your skin right off the bone.

I also wonder if you could shoot yourself to high pulling the motor out of the water long enough to lose pressure.

Lastly, who would the give way vessel be?

The one that is under you when you lose pressure. Unless, of course, that is a vessel under sail. And in that case, the boat must be renamed "Impaler Sailor."

Looks like fun, especially with the theme song from '2001 A Space Odyssey' blasting in the background. Then again, probably be better to rent than own.
