>First ever electric pwc

A San Francisco based company packed with endurance athletes and engineers is building an electric jet ski. According to Eco Watercraft the Eco1 will do more than 50mph. As quick as that is, it is nothing compared to the price. This new watercraft will cost as high as $32,000 when it goes into production in 2011. It is bound to be expensive since it is new technology but it will open new horizons in the recreational segment. The electrics are housed in an air- and watertight casing so you won’t get fried should you somehow manage to sink the vessel. Also, it will sport solar panels and will be built in a factory powered by renewable energy. Taylor hopes to unveil the Eco 1 at the Ironman World Championship in Hawaii next October. He says a second prototype with a carbon fiber hull will be finished in five weeks and the company will start taking orders by the end of the year. Once production on the Eco1 begins, the company will start work on an cheaper model with a little less performance and a price around $10,000 to $12,000.

>Rick Roy prepares a Runabout

The people and pwc enthusiasts that attended the World Finals last years had the opportunity to see the first Ski that was actually designed and produced by famous and world known freestyle rider Rick Roy. On our recent interview Rick informed us that he was working hard on a new project which is a Runabout hull. Since the FS-1 was a fully adjustable Ski we would expect that his Runabout version will share the same philosophy. Most probably his new Runabout will make its debut at the World Finals and for sure it will be a show stopper.
