On the German ebay site, I saw this wooden scratch built hydro. I was shocked when I saw the transom picture. A jet drive. WOW. 
I wonder why it's for sale?

Danny, the problem is some young kid will buy it and be very disappointed. I do not buy anything from ebay. Buyer beware

Ya, the green eyed monster started my direction till I realized he started those builds in 1999.
Honestly though, I have thought about a quad rigger, just not "air powered" lol"A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough."
