The Boat Challenge

[Uberlyuber]

All right, this is a pretty simple challenge:

Get a boat on the water and show me how far, fast, and efficiently you can go

RULES

1. No jet engines/ions allowed.

2. Use of a skycrane, airplane, or etc. Is prohibited except to get it to the coastline.

3. The game has to be completely stock. That said, however, MechJeb is allowed.

HALL OF FAME

So we can use rockets and / or ions?

Err...why no Jet engines? I built a boat with jet engines and that boat was over 200m/s fast!

[SSSPutnik]

Will a jet engine run underwater if the intake is out?

Someone should make a caterpillar drive system like Hunt for Red October

[DarkStar64]

This guy did it without engines before this challenge was created

(DISCLAMER, this is not a submitsion, I just wanted to show that it can be done without jet engines.)

You know, when you make a boat, you usally use jet engines.

Heres a boatplane i made some weeks ago that travels 144.6 M/S (sometimes more) using jets :

It could have gone faster, but it was ment to be able to take off from water and land on water, so it had to be a little modified which made it slower.

[Uberlyuber]

Wow. I didnt expect this much of a response.

Anyway, the reason for no jet engines is due to the fact they're overly efficent, and im trying to see how effecient, as well as how far and fast you can go. Kapeesh?

You can use rockets, even the LV909 one's. No ions, due to efficency challenge
