Abstract
A floatable toy (e.g., a toy boat) having two hulls, a frame spanning the hulls, and a container for holding a supply of water above the level of the water on which the toy floats. A discharge outlet is connected to the container at its bottom and extends downwardly below the surface of the water. A nozzle opening is provided at the bottom of the discharge outlet so as to discharge a jet of water in a generally horizontal direction thereby to impart thrust on the floatable toy. The container and the discharge outlet are rotatable relative to the frame spanning the hulls about a generally vertical axis so as to enable the toy to be steered.
