C/Us showing the controls in the boat and engine; when Mr FC pushes a lever forward a shutter drops over a hole at the rear of the boat. The commentator says "in place of the usual propeller and rudder, a simple nozzle containing steering vanes which emits the jet stream - not of air but of water... the jet unit (powered by a car engine) sucks in water through a grille in the bottom of the hull and shoots it out through the back at tremendous pressure". M/S of Mr FC in the boat as it reverses out onto the lake and drives off, doing several right angle turns and U-turns. M/Ss of Mr FC in the boat as it speeds along, the rear of the boat showing the wake; C/U showing the rudder. Various M/Ss and C/Us of the boat speeding along then M/S of the boat coming in to shore, driving right up onto the beach then coming to a halt. M/S of three boats as they cruise past the camera side by side. The drivers of the other boats are Mike O'Brien (in the centre boat with dark hair) and Frank Regan. M/Ss of the three boats as they speed past and show turning ability. C/Us of Mr FC at the controls of the boat with the other two in the background and steering the wheel as he makes a turn. M/S of the three boats reaching top speed in only 4 inches of water; speeding past two men standing ankle deep in water. M/S Point of view shot from the rear boat of the other two ahead. M/S of the three boats as they come in towards the beach, where all three come to a halt and the men start to climb out.
