Other wise known as water scooters. The more modern one's are electric.

Here's a newer style gas motor one.

That stinks, they can't sell anymore new in the US due to EPA standards. They can only offer rebuilds unless out of 'the EPA zone.'

On Jan 4th, 2010 the "EPA" has changed the emission requirement on 2 stroke engines. Our latest 2009 model does not meet these 2010 requirements; so it's back to the drawing board for the next year or 2. However, we have rebuilt older Aquascooters to meet almost any budget starting at $775.00. All rebuilts include our warranty, so why take a chance on a used online Aquascooter and then have to have them rebuilt. All Aquascooter are rebuilt to order, you pick the level of upgrade to meet your budget.

I had a fleet (4) of aquascooters............ Key word is "had" .

Normally only 1 sometimes 2 would work at a time. They were great fun at the sandbars and go lots of attention, but there very finicky even with the upgrades.

Also yes, there knowen to blow chicks tops off with out them knowing. That 2 hp engine hooked to the 2 bladed prop moves lots of water down, and tops are great water catchers
