If I had a Million Dollars.....

I ran across this today. Would make a fine Dinghy.

But I'd need a 2x bigger boat. But then you'd want two of them since they only seat 1, which means a 3x bigger boat.


If you google it there are some videos



Fun to dream though..........

Very cool. I'll add it to my must have list.

Flying inflatable would be far more versatile.
Gets a couple of people up and afterwards you have an actual dinghy and about $950,000 (guessing) in your wallet.

I have one of these in storage I’ll make you a deal on.
They aren’t sold anymore and are in fact illegal in certain places, like any lake the Corp of Engineers control.
They are a blast though

That flyer looks really cool and fun, though the propellers look unsafe.

A64pilot- I wonder if that tube kite would work behind my C Scow. We've towed water skiers behind it before. It worked surprisingly good outside of having jump off ready to go. But only while sailing down wind. But the tube would be a breeze compared to ski's lol.

As far as the drone thing goes.I'd prefer something like the Mosquito xet personal helicopter. I just wish that along with my million dollars that the turbine powered model qualified as a ultralight under part 103 lol

You need about 30 kts or better for the flying tube, the heavier the Roberson, the faster of course.
