Vessels
The Hydro-Liner from Great Gizmos is powered by water, and if you drop a colour tablet into the reservoir at the top of the boat it will glide along leaving a colourful trail behind it.
The liner works by kinetic energy: similar to a waterfall releasing energy as it falls, the water stored inside this hydro-liner when you submerge it and fill the inner hull releases enough energy as it 'falls' inside the boat to propel the vessel forward. The Liner comes with a pack of colour tablets and is priced 9.99.

There is a lift-up flap at the back of the boat to allow for storage. Priced 6.95.
