   Waterskiing spacecraft manevuering

   So, everybody knows what the waterskiing spacecraft is, right?    
   So my problem with it is how to controllably manevuer with it. I think the   
   best way is to rotate forward (engine section by flywheels, and use some   
   thrusters for the cargo/habitat part. This must be carefully timed, so the   
   line connecting both modules    
   don't curve (or contort? Sorry, here I had problem with good word for that)   
   too much.    
   Any other ideas?
