I shouldnt laugh ...but i did

" let me show them how close I can land to the shore" = Epic Fail.

Touch down way too fast. Or should i say splash down too fast.

I could not hold it back. Had to laugh.

His landing was good.
He tilt over because he did not keep the boat straight ( with the rudder) once he landed!
My two cents.!

Morning Kev,

I wonder what my PAX would say if I did?....

Resolution in the vid is not good but it seems the prop is turning right through to the ditching?.... a loss of power perhaps?

Really think he stuffed the landing , misread the waves and landed in deeper water , but he survived but i think it shows you can survive a water landing in an open trike as well.

Don't know how it works, but how do you steer the boat...after touch down? Do you fit a foot peddal operated rudder? Or connect the control bar to the rudder...don't think so...
