boat stop watch, and slalom spped chart

[TheTurtleMan]

Back in the day when I was slalom skiing, someone made a cool stop watch for a boat. It had a display in the dash, and had 2 foot buttons for your feet to run it. Does any one know if you can still get these? And I was also looking for a slalom speed chart I could print and keep in my boat.

Thanks...
