Aye, it's the sensationalist press (as usual) that gave you this title. Looks pretty cool.

Mind you I did read about a guy driving a jet ski or a RHIB between the hulls of the Liverpool - Ireland high speed catamaran that's kamikaze.

We're over regulated by H&S kill joys.

Cool!

I've always wondered what it'd be like in heavy weather on a jetski... like a damp motocross track lol.

Doesn't hurt quite as much when you hit the deck on a jet ski, although water can be pretty hard stuff at high speed
