It'll only be a matter of time before someone mentions that it should've been a Fleetwood since they're "boats".

Fleetwood? Maybe. Definitely needed to be RWD though, to run the propeller. They couldn't possibly have used any FWD junk. Hey, aren't those Chinese boats called "junks"?

Oh, come one. You can make a paddle-wheeler out of anything: FWD or RWD. Sheesh! Doesn't anyone watch Junkyard Wars???

It wouldnt sound so crazy if you lived in a country where you are robots controlled by the government and freedom was a short 90 miles away. But 90 miles seems a bit far for a surfboard. I mean sharks get surfers 100 feet off the coast but not the middle of the ocean? Do 90 miles in old Chevy-Yes do 90 miles on a surfboard-Go ahead and kill me Castro. Better than bein swallowed hole by a giant fish.

If the Cubans could watch Junkyard Wars or Monster Garage, or for that matter have the resources to acquire the requisite tools and materials, they probably wouldn't want to leave Cuba in the first place. As it is, they used the RWD driveshaft to turn the prop on their floating truck and therefore required RWD. Sure, MacGyver could have done it with an blender, two coconuts, and a hairpin - problem is they don't have a Senor MacGyver to teach them.
