Bright Orange Pursuit Jet Boats
The sleek one-man jet boats streak across the water, their bright orange hulls cutting through the waves with barely a ripple. Each craft’s fiberglass body shines under the coastal sun, their angular designs built for speed rather than comfort. Compact cockpit windshields offer little shelter from the spray, forcing riders to lean low as they carve tight turns. The jet engines roar, leaving frothing wakes that collapse behind them before dissolving into the tide. Their minimalist controls—throttle, tiller, and kill switch—suggest machines meant for single-handed pursuit. The engines ignite without warning, sending the Doctor adrift from the external ladder mid-flight and forcing his makeshift escape using redirected air supply.
