Should be a fun contraption to ride, nice one, Eric!

I can imagine an outboard motor arrangement for windless days - with a wheel instead of a propeller.

do you mean with a kind of motor like this for example ?



but ... wait a moment ... [rumble rumble ...] ... oh, how lovely, I just happen to find one in my spares box ...
now I just need to see how to fit a wheel ...

That's it.  Just put a 90 degree gearbox on the end where the prop is and then attach a wheel.  Sorted.

That's it.  Perfect.
I am saving these pictures as this rivals the tentacle plane for position as your best ever build.

thanks again for the suggestion : additionaly to being so relevant, it enabled me to make use of this motorboat engine which was desperately hoping for it.

And you are welcome to save any picture you like of course, and even to try and remake or reinterpret any of these contraptions :
you skills would obviously go much further.

I don't know about that.  Your imagination is certainly much more fertile than mine.
I do have more than 3 colours of paint though.

[ericr]

a 100% organic proposal this time,
no mechanical device (e.g., aircraft) was harmed during the making of this build

I still have brains in my stash :

Are you aware of the character Krang in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cartoons?

I have nightmares about things like this.

Very good.
