Loner waterskiing

Ever thought to yourself, "you know, I'd love to go waterskiing, but I just don't have any friends who could drive the boat"? Well, Washington State-based SOLO is championing the needy dreams of lonely water skiiers everywhere, with the Personal Ski Machine, an unmanned electric motor boat/ski jet-type thing to pull you around. You can manuever the Personal Ski Machine via its electronically controlled tow handle, and when you inevitably fall or drop the handle the boat automatically raises a flag and immediately shuts down. Good idea, though we remember reading somewhere that you should never do water sports without a supervised adult.
