Walking on Water!

tape up your belly pan holes and rock. I usually let out the limiter straps before I do it to.

When she starts to go down, hit the killswitch and jam the left side of the sled into the water as hard as you can, once the clutch gets under water it'll grind the motor to a halt, which is good. LAST thing you want is the thing still pumping over and then to suck water, that's insta-rebuild time.

If you get the motor stopped before you sink it, just spray some water dispersant down the spark plug holes, replace fuel and oil, and carry on, less than 10 minutes work.

it's not so tough, I mean you can skip across the top easy street, it's when you fit a ddep paddled track and clutch and gear for torque and thrust and start actually playing around with starting, stopping, turning that it gets really fun. And I've not got much experience with that stuff at all. Just the standard "close 1 eye, lean back and keep it pinned." stuff.
