Handy Delaware man turns beat-up jet ski, scooter into water-squirting ‘Land-Doo'

“I'm just saying I never saw one before.”

A creative man is riding something around Delaware beach towns that might have you saying, “what did I just see?”

It’s a wave runner, but it isn’t out on the waves. Instead, the so-called “Land-Doo” is cruising the streets.

"Land-Doo" creator Justin Bonneville said he is good with his hands, especially around anything that burns gasoline. 

So, when he saw a WaveRunner turned motorbike down in Florida, his creative/mechanical juices started flowing. 

“I thought it was really cool, something I'd like to try to build, figured I could do it,” Bonneville said. “Finally pulled the trigger and bought a scooter, bought a jet ski and started problem solving and putting the two together.” 

He took a $100 broken-down jet ski plus a high-powered motor scooter to create his so-called “Land Doo” – basically a Sea-Doo on land.

It wound up taking about 100 hours of work and $2,500 in materials to bring his head-turning vision to fruition.

The yellow vehicle had working lights, signals and gauges and even a horn. 

But, before the “Lan-Doo” was road ready, Bonneville had one last thing to check off his wish list.

“I knew it had to squirt water,” he said to emulate a real Sea-Doo.

Lots of eyeballs have been checking out his new ride around Rehoboth Beach and nearby towns.

The good news is the “Land-Doo” is completely street legal in Delaware. The bad news is this is the only one, for now.

That could change in the future as more people see the "Land-Doo" glide down the street, but Bonneville said he's not there yet. 

“I definitely have had a couple people who were like ‘hey, the next one you build let me know, I'm definitely interested,” Bonneville said.
