Abstract
A water toy or tube toy propelled by a jet of water includes an elongated body having an internal cylinder for containing a variable volume of water therein. A piston is mounted for slidable movement in the cylinder and is biased in one direction to decrease the volume of water in the cylinder by discharging a propelling jet stream of water from the rear end of the body. Valve means is provided permitting the filling of the cylinder with water when the piston is moved in an opposite direction and floatation means is provided for supporting the body on the water.
