The police speedboat, your kid’s wildest dream?

the-police-speedboat-your-kide28099s-wildest-dream-01s
Children usually have an imagination that is able to amaze people and to make them ask themselves how in earth a human being of no more than a couple of years old can come up with all sorts of ideas that wouldn’t cross their minds in a million years.

They want to be the characters they see in movies and cartoons, they want to have the toys their friends have, they imagine living in fantasy worlds that do not and will never exist. But this is their charm, after all.

However, what are you supposed to do when your kid comes to you and confesses that he/she would really like to have a police speedboat, because it would help them become the defender of justice and peace, just like they’ve seen on TV?

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

You should take into consideration the Children’s Inflatable 2MPH Speedboat, offered by Hammacher Schlemmer. Not only it will make your kid’s dream a dream come true, but it will also give him the chance to spend the summer outdoors.

The speedboat isn’t a police speedboat, just like your little one might want, but it provides a speed of 2mph when sailing on calm waters, in areas like pools or small ponds, which is more than the word “safe” can describe.

“The outboard electric motor is controlled by a child sitting in the inflated hull – a handhold with a finger trigger turns the motor on or off immediately; the boat can accommodate two children at once. The motor drives a shrouded propeller with no exposed blades that provides smooth movement over calm water; the motor can be turned 360°, so even backward movement is possible.”

The speedboat runs on eight D batteries that are able to provide approximately five hours of continuous operation. When deflated, it measures 25 x 13.5 x 8 inches, so you can easily store it when the summer ends, while inflated measures 53 x 25 x 8 inches.

The “police speedboat” can be purchased from Hammacher Schlemmer for $99.95.

Taga, a twin doll stroller

taga-a-twin-doll-stroller-01s
The picture below doesn’t reveal a twin doll stroller and I’m aware of this aspect. The lady has two babies in the stroller, flesh and blood babies who cry in late hours, who need to have their diapers changed, who need more attention that anyone else on Earth.

If you have a kid of your own, then you most surely know how much fun wheeling the baby around can be, especially when he feels like breathing some fresh air all day long. No one said that having a baby will be the most pleasant and the easiest thing to do.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

Therefore, if you already have a child and you think that having another one is the best thing for your family, then I strongly advise you to take into consideration a double stroller like the one you can see in the picture. This isn’t a common stroller, because the parent is able to sit in a seat that is placed behind the tykes. It’s a mixture, if you like, between a stroller and a tricycle.

The Taga Stroller Trike weighs from 44 to 64 pounds (it depends on the configuration you choose) and comes with a frame made of aluminum-alloy. In addition, it is provided with an internal Shimano gear system, and also with rear, front and parking brakes.

The Taga twin doll stroller is available in European countries for the moment and can be yours for £1,695.

Futuristic beach buggy for sale?

futuristic-beach-buggy-for-sale-01s
I am not sure when the beach buggy that can be seen in the pictures below is going to be available to be purchased by people from all over the world, but one thing is for sure: it looks as futuristic as those small flying cars from science fiction movies look like and I would like to see the person who’d dare to disagree.

futuristic-beach-buggy-for-sale-01


The concept was created by Spanish designer Miguel-Angel Iranzo Sanchez, who has a degree in Graphic Design (EASD Valencia). For the moment, the designer is attending the courses of a Master in Transportation Design at the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia. This means he has every reason to consider himself a specialist in this domain and to try to envisage the vehicles of the future.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

After creating the Seat Brisa, he came up with another concept, called Seat Duna, an electric beach buggy that is aimed at being old-fashioned and eco-friendly in the same time. The vehicle is based on the Volkswagen Up! platform and it’s powered by electric motors. To be more precise, the Duna juices up from the sun and the power goes straight to the nano photovoltaic cells that are placed in the translucent elastomere shell.

“With its lightweight mesh seats, laminated cedar rocker panels inspired by vintage surfboards, and bright colors, the Seat Duna is a quite extrovert car”.

So, if you wonder whether this buggy beach will ever be “for sale”, I think that the best thing we could do right now is to just sit back and wait. Wait for a miracle to happen.

Luxury yachts for sale?

luxury-yachts-for-sale-01s
Well, not quite, but if you give me a moment, I will surely explain. It seems that experts consider the fractional membership to be a pretty good solution in these difficult times we are all facing right now, because, believe it or not, everyone is affected by the economic crisis, from poor people to rich ones, who have a difficult time trying to realize how in earth they got to such a bad situation.

luxury-yachts-for-sale-01


Maybe unbelievably rich people don’t afford to buy themselves the luxurious goods that they were accustomed to in the past, but they still have the budget to help them own a share in a $24 million luxury yacht, for example. Famous British architect Norman Foster has just launched his first superyacht, which is known under the name of Ocean Emerald, designed for YachtPlus. And guess what? If an amount of $2,485,000 won’t make a hole in your budget, then this kind of money will give you the chance to enjoy 30 nights a year on the board of this yacht.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

The yacht measures 41 meters and it was built at the Rodriguez Cantieri Navale yard, which is placed in Italy, according to the specifications given by Foster & Partners. The fittings were all made by Cassina, while the kitchen and galley equipment were in the care of Schiffini. There are five suites aimed at approximately 12 guests, who will be given the royal treatment by a crew consisting of seven trained employees.

Not to mention that “all arrangements from bookings to transport, private jet, helicopter transfers and onboard requests will be taken care of”.

luxury-yachts-for-sale-03


There will four identical such yachts available in the next couple of years, and the second, Ocean Pearl, is said to enter the service sometimes in the autumn of this year. The third, Ocean Sapphire, is expected to be launched in the first months of the next year, while the fourth, which has not a name for the moment, will be available sometimes at the end of 2010.

luxury-yachts-for-sale-04


These aren’t luxury yachts for sale, as you can easily see. To be more precise, you won’t be able to buy the whole yacht for yourself, you’ll have to share it. Because it’s all about sharing, you guys!

Zeon, a Hustler lawn mower

zeon-a-hustler-lawn-mower-01s
Look at the big yellow “creature” that you can see in the picture below and tell me what you think it is. Tell me what you imagine it to be. I’m not kidding you, really! I just want you to tell me what you believe.

It’s just a matter of curiosity, because I couldn’t say whether it’s one thing or another. Anyway, I’ve been patient enough to read about it and I found that the yellow creature is called Zeon, a Hustler lawn mower.

zeon-a-hustler-lawn-mower-01


The Hustler Zeon is an all-electric which is said to be (by the manufacturer, of course) “the world’s first all-electric zero-turn riding mower”. This little machine (which isn’t so little after all, not after calling it a “big yellow creature”) has just arrived in the spotlight. The bad thing is that, despite its appearance, the price wasn’t yet unveiled.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

The Zeon can be fully charged in approximately 16 hours, which provides up to 80 minutes of trimming your garden. It isn’t bad, especially if you don’t have a garden that you can measure in hectares.

“The Zeon is the result of groundbreaking innovation and precision engineering. It delivers a beautiful cut with its welded deck, and the neighbors will be amazed at how quiet it is. No emissions, no gasoline, no oil, no belts, no plugs, no pulleys… No joke”.

You can reach approximately seven miles per hour (maximum) when using the new Hustler lawn mower.
