Get a Cannon for your Boat, a Cooler Cannon!

Source: Cooler Cannon via Kickstarter

Have you ever wanted a cannon for your boat? Come on, be honest, you know the 8 year old kid in you would have traded any number of your younger siblings to have a boat with a real, working cannon.

Now you can appease that cutthroat inner child of yours and still feel like a grown-ass man. Get yourself a Cooler Cannon, it's a cooler that can shoot you a fresh can. When you’re anchored up at the island you won’t have to climb back into the boat to get yourself a beverage beer. You know you are already picturing that next icey cold beverage being shot over the gunnel and into your hand.  Head on over to the Cooler Cannon Kicksarter campaign and you can pick up an early production model for around $200.

Check out a video of the Cannon in action after the jump.

Sprint Boat Mini-Series Looking for Kickstarter Funds w/video

Source: Kickstarter

Sprint boat racing is the aquatic equivalent of rally car racing.  If you replace the small car and the ridiculously large horsepower engine with a small boat and a ridiculously large horsepower engine, throw in a shallow maze of murky water and a burly New Zealander or two and you have yourself a jetsprint race.  Fast paced action, epic crashes, roaring V8 engines and jet drives, what’s not to love about the sport.  Check out the mini-series project called “Whiplashed” in its funding phase on Kickstarter.  The series has been approached by SPEED TV for possible national exposure. If you are unfamiliar with Kickstarter, it is an all-or-nothing funding platform for creative projects.  You can help out with as little as a $1 donation; but the creatives for the Whiplashed project have also sweetened the deal depending on your pledge amount (check it out).  If you pledge $1000 or more you can even get the ride of your life on an actual track in a sprint boat.  0-85MPH in 2.5 Seconds, 7 G's around corners!

Watch a quick trailer of the project after the jump and don’t forget to go to the Kickstarter page and donate!
