A Drone For Your Bottom? - KeelCrab Kickstarter

More drones are on their way. Interesting idea.

This is the 3rd thread on this "drone", and there has been some discussion of it, both as an object and as a "click trap".

I'm curious to know if anyone has tried this out and can give a review? I'm wary of things that sound too good to be true.

Did an advanced forum search and nothing came up. The campaign has only been live for a short period of time. Thought I would post it and spread a cool idea.

The Kickstarter campaign says it's being used in 10 ports in Italy. I have some Italian friends so I'll ask for their assistance in drafting up an email in Italian and then I'll contact these marinas and see what sort of feedback they give and get that translated.
If it works as promised, could be a nice little business investment, but again, I'm wary of things that sound too good to be true.

Strange,clicking on Search, Advanced Search and typing "keelcrab" showed me all the previous threads.

As did typing the same thing in the Google Custom Search box.
