Cool new boat
This could be in sports, entertainment, or some esoteric outdoors thread, but since we don't have one, check out this cool boat.

It's a cross between a kayak and a jet ski. Sweet.

It used to be that if you wanted to get away from it all for some peace and quiet, you could go to some remote stream with your kayak. Leave all the trappings of city life behind.
Now the loud motorboats can follow you there too. I don't like the idea of the Mokai, although it looks like fun. Notice that in the video they don't have the sound turned on? Thats because if you heard these things you would realize that they destroy the peace and quiet of the areas they visit. |

glatt, that's exactly what I was thinking. If you want to get to the wilderness, get there on your own power.

Every party has a pooper, that's why we invited you....
j/k Actually, I would be really really pissed if I was trying to enjoy some peace and quiet out in the middle of nowhere, and some a-hole came zooming by in one of those. Although, this doesn't look like you'd be tearing around in it like someone would on a jet ski...

Ear plugs huh?
When I kayak on a still lake in the morning or evening when there is no wind and the water's surface is like a mirror, I try to limit the drips coming off of my paddle so I make no noise at all. You can sneak up on wildlife that way. These guys are talking about wearing earplugs. |

yeah, those critters will be long gone before you can get a shot off, if your watercraft is so loud you need earplugs.
