I just had to show someone what I've been doing the past little while, and I think of you all as peers so here goes. My buddy and I have been building a Lamborghini Boat modeled after the Reventon a $1.6million piece of goodness. It will likely be powered by a waver runner jet. It fits two people comfortably and will have a 2 radiator circulating air conditioning blower system that is cooled by the beer/drink cooler which is the front hood/hatch. I've been thinking about puting some under water led's like OceanLED's($1000) but DIY style. Maybe even some underwater lasers? If you all have any good ideas to incorporate into this build feel free to comment.

Awesome. Update OP I'd like to keep seeing the progress. :beer:

445 nm blaring at a nice low angle into the water will look awesome in the night

Try and make it so you light up a huge area around you in the water.

Bring that to cali and jet it around the delta, you'll have to come get my handicap butt would be awesome

That's a lot of work cutting the foam just right and
getting the right and left sides identical... Been there
done that...

Well... at least we know that Styrofoam floats....:D

Yeah I bought a 1/18 scale rc car of it then used a digital caliper to measure and cross multiply all the measurements. Luckily I was the kid in algebra and geometry that slept and got 100's. But yeah we got to a point where the curves have to be eyed out.
We're going to cover it in tape then fiberglass it and add some supports.

I'm thinking of keeping it stock like the real car, but my buddy and I get pretty drunk when we work on it so every aspect of the build is always up in the air. It may come down to just putting some kind of custom vinyl wrap on it.
