Yacht toys

Water Slide

No self respecting yacht should be with out a water slide Un Toboggan pour Yacht !!!!!! - YouTube cowabunga!

The yacht is Just Enough, its for charter around on the brokers, and i think thats what is written on the slide itself? I'm not sure who the builder is... dont think its trinity...let me look and see if i find something

Nope, I dont think its a trinity... its listed on the web with Builder: Custom....

check the listing (I hope it doesnt break any rules), the description talks about the builder but doesnt name it.... my guess its a no-name yard in some third-world country... Even like that, I prefer to know the name... looks like a pretty boat nonetheless...

SY Times lists Builder: Unknown... but an interesting note: "Comment: The hull was originally build in 1989 by Broward."

Somebody, somewhere will buy one.

This has got to be the next must-have toy for the summer. The quality of the video is excellent.

Dave,

Just spent the entire morning with Precision Aerial Filmworks discussing exactly the same idea you posted in that video. Here's PAF's website...

I also saw a demo of the down-sized version of the same exact equipment, but on a less expensive, civilian scale this morning using a Go-Pro. This quad is from DJI innovations and it's under $750. Unbelievable technology and it works!

In contrast, PAF uses the industrial version from DJI. It is nearly $10,000 for a six-rotor machine with a fully articulated gimble housing for a camera. The only drawback is the limited selection of cameras that will work with this ship because the software must interface with the camera to have control over the shutter release, zoom, etc.

A mate here has just spent $000's on a commercial one. He's going to use it for land and coastal surveys. So much cheaper and easier than chartering a helicopter or plane.

I am no advocate for "laws" or "rules".
However:
There should be a law against this sort of visual and spiritual pollution on the water!

Thats very cool. But might be hard to find room for all of that onboard.

The hovercraft is super-cool, but may be dangerous, too, as a toy in a yacht. Obviously the guy in the video masters it, but just think of all those reckless youngsters with no experience. Its a toy for trained specialists.

The slide is beyond my comprehension. Is like an enormous glorification of something very simple and not that entertaining. Even small kids just jump 3 or 4 times, and it probably takes 2 hours to inflate that thing (never mind deflate the monster).

Cool I want one, but this slide is to big for my yacht.......I hope they sell slides 2 feet long too.....

Now if Amazon decided to use drones like that it could be cool. (Otherwise drones are for slingshot practice)
