Yeh. I spent an hour or so last night trawling through both his replies ( wetting myself) but more importantly the brilliant links there.

Boy some hours went into this thing.

I loved the CNC cut foam prop blades bonded to windsurfer masts and are variable pitch by cable from the cockpit.

Bidding has slowed down at $5000 at the moment.

My guess is it will make around $18,500

This one really cracked me up.

Q: ?Does it follow that faster- than- light vehicle is possible??Jun-05-13
A: ?Sadly no. But I'd definitely add a seatbelt before attempting it.
