funny boats


a real version "pop-pop" boat like this model would give a breathtaking sound, mayby have the exhoust below waterline? (see patents)
anyone knows a simpler speed engine? have a plea$ureboat and only wish i could do some pop-pop R&D ;-)

visit the pop-pop toyboats page.

No boats, just funny - for yipster

Just caught up with this one.
Pop pop boats - were a regular craze when I was a schoolboy. But to respond to your search for an even cheaper method of power:
Cut a large 'V' notch in your stern and insert a lump of camphor...
Beats the pop pop anyday.

Here's cheap, you don't even have to modify your "stern". Sam
