To whoever gave me negative feedback for my post here: You suck. Just because you don't get a joke isn't a good reason to post anonymous negative feedback. It probably wasn't even aimed at you. If you don't understand or have a problem with it just say so in the thread or a PM. Throwing rocks from the shadows (for a damn JOKE) is the behavior of a little punk.

I don't think the sphere is a good idea and you definitely want to start out in front of the rocket. The problem is, staying in front; rockets are competitive and want to get ahead. I suppose you could start with this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpUMSarCSQw and delete the ramp and parachute for a start. Er, you probably need to do some other modifications as well before taking it out over the water ...

Sounds like those Pod-racers from starwars on water...

Have to say, its a very elaborate, expansive yet out of the box idea for suicide ... would make an interesting news story though ....
