- BobbyMC, on 07/21/2008, -4/+82GENIUS!!! MAKE THE BOAT OUT OF WATER AND IT IS PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR IT TO EVER SINK!
Calling this modern marvel nothing more than a water fountain is an insult to all the scientists who worked long nights and have never gotten laid just so you can ride the seas without fear of the kraken. Sit in the corner and think about what you just did. - smokingcow, on 10/12/2007, -7/+69A schooner is a sailboat, stupid head.
- justinbland, on 10/12/2007, -17/+66you guys are into the tackiest *****!!!

Water Fountain ≠ Drinking Fountain.

Drinking Fountain
http://www.ics.uci.edu/~eppstein/pix/holherpk2/DrinkingFountain.html - Retuow, on 10/12/2007, -1/+31Yeah, out of ALL the water fountains I saw today, this was the coolest :D
- BowieX, on 10/12/2007, -3/+330mG! You're right! I didn't see any cooler water fountains today. But it's only 6pm, I'll wait till after dinner before getting too excited.
- Foamator, on 10/12/2007, -3/+26Nudar learnt the hard way that a lot of Digg users don't understand sarcasm unless it has a tag at the end...
- AKBryant54, on 10/12/2007, -6/+28It's a sailboat!
- jmchez, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17It's in Valencia Spain.
Here's another picture of it. At night it's even cooler.

- shortarabguy, on 10/12/2007, -4/+18About as long as it took for some drunk ass to try sailing in it.
- mhuggins, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15@mscrip & Nudar -- I agree, this water fountain is way too complex for drinking.
- jlebrech, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12You're right about that, I saw a cooler one but it was yesterday!
- DevilDunkard, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12How long you think that was up and running before some drunk ass tried to take a bath in it?
- rayyy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12I thought water fountain always comes with naked girls dancing in it...
- HalFTW, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9It's the only water fountain I have seen today. :/
- Mantees, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Imagine yourself in 20 years digging the news that Britney Spears cut her hair -_-
- black27696, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Why digg this guy down for giving us a mirror? In about half an hour, you know, when the main image crashes, we'll be happy for the mirror
- TehPenguin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Its a pretty cool effect
Although, I'd like to see a movie of it when there is a bit of changing wind... - gr8fuldane, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I don't remember what I dug yesterday.
- antoniojvr, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Wrong category. It should be in the pictu... nevermind.
- Mantees, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Why is people diggind down the location? O_o
It is not true? - hoowahman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5you digg downers for the mirror are idiots. "LETS DIGG DOWN PEOPLE THAT HELP THE COMMUNITY" is that what your thinking seriously reply to me...I'm pissed at you.
- Arahka, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I just think it would be fun to play in during the summer
- toad22, on 10/12/2007, -10/+13Mirrored at Picli: http://www.picli.com/Coolest-water-fountain-you-will-see-today-by-toad22
- theskunkworks, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7This one may not use water but I think it's a hell of a lot cooler than that. http://www.dourish.com/photos/albums/barcelona/photos/miro-calder-mercury-fountain.jpg
- Verdanic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's probably high enough pressure that at least the 'hull' of the boat wouldn't be disturbed. I don't know about the sail, could be cool.
- mogus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Getting an even amount of pressure through all ports would be difficult. given a constant inner pipe diameter, the successive pressure losses at each port and through the friction losses on the pipe wall and pressure losses due to the change in elevation makes adding pressure non-effective in achieving a consistent between ports. Having a variable diameter pipe, or having a return line that circulated high-pressure water may be the only answer. I think this is how many fuel injection systems work in maintaining constant fuel pressure down the rails so that each cylinder gets a fuel "dose" that is close to the same size as the others.
- terror96, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5digg is going straight down hill. What the hell is this its a fountain ooooh coool, not even a very exciting design? Best one I will see today? Maybe? if i dont step foot outside or browse the internet for 5 minutes.
- davesbrain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's the only waterfountain I'll see all day.
- shortarabguy, on 10/12/2007, -4/+6I'm going to go searching for cooler looking water fountains right now!
- mutatron, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Yes, a water fountain is a drinking fountain, at least in common US usage. "Water fountain" itself is redundant. A "fountain" is understood to be a large device spewing water out in the middle of a square or some such place, so the redundant "water fountain" is understood to be synonymous with "drinking fountain".
- cmiller1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2All I dugg yesterday was the 25 worst rapper names of all time, that's pretty sad.
- KazamaSmokers, on 10/12/2007, -5/+6You don't drink from a water fountain, you drink from a bubbler.
- FelixdaaHack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1all I can think about is how much energy it's using up
- Endemoniada, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Correction:
The ONLY water fountain I've seen today. - Moria, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1If you want to see an awesome fountain, Google the "Trevvi" fountain in Rome. All the fountains in Rome are awesome actually.
- Pulp, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Pretty cool, but it bothers me that there isn't enough water pressure for it to reach the top of that diagonal portion.
- JDoggqx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Spam much?
- thefaithful, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That is actually the coolest water fountain I'll see today.
Thank you for not giving it the title "MOST AMAZING WATER FOUNTAIN EVERS!!" - jaydoj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1YAAAAAR Riding the seas without fear of the Kraken?
hello beastie - black27696, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1mmmmm....cancer inducing....
But yes it is sweet looking. - floorman56, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1How about a dirty fountain?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manneken_Pis - Stegg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Who's sitting looking at water fountains all day? How about "The coolest water fountain you will see this year.."
- rmmcclay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm into sailing.
It is most certainly the coolest water fountain I've seen all day. - tw0bit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1yes it is very tacky
- GeneralKickass, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1ARGGH Me Black Pearl, there lie thee...
- mikehartor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Perfect! I've never paid so much attention to this before.
- TheProtested, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The site name says it all....
- robojames, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Way cooler fountain, with fire:
