I had enough renting a pedal boat in order to recover my miss Bud 1/12 stuck in the middle of the pond.

The options to recover it as I see are:

1. Pedal boat. :p
2. Another electric boat pushung the dead one :p
3. RTS - dual engine on one prop (Only at Traxxas)
4. My new system!!!
A small folding prop attached to the rear panel of the miss bud and connected to a third channel.
If you are stuck, push a button, the prop opens and bring your baby home.
Now I want your advice on two thinks:
1. Will it work?????
2. Where can I find a small prop and small engine.......

I used to have to go swimming but since the water is SOOOO cold. It's salt water. I got a cheap inflatable raft from a sports store. I will be getting a cheap jet ski after christmas and I can use that to go get it. Thiss will be a real jet ski.

This looks like a good deal.
