Popular Science has posted a pretty cool article about how kayaker Shaun Baker attached the engine of jet ski to his kayak. The project cost $10,000 to develop and 18 months to put together, but you can see the results for yourself below. Baker steers the boat by using his paddle as a rudder and he uses peddles inside the cockpit to control his speed. Looks like fun! Oh, and that Topcat 4×4 looks awesome too!
