Why? I mean, won't a boat work 4 U? Huge gas guzzler! If U R looking for the experience of driving on road and then being able to drive into water, large cities have duck bus tours. Google this for details.

Well there ya go, especially if you enjoy fishing & dining on your catch Doesn't get any fresher than that, does it?

I stopped short of finding out how much one of those costs. I'm sure it's way out of my affordability range.

Maybe we could go together on one...or just take the duck tour?

We boat, when I first saw this video, it worried me! I would be afraid of water leaking in the wheel wells, or other places.

I prefer semi-displacement hulls! Ha! And going 30 mph on the water with our staterooms, heads, galley, and salon going along with us. It's being taken out of the water on Saturday, kinda sad.

I don't think it would be able to pull skiers. They'd need to get up on plane in order to pull a skier and they'd need at least 500 hp engine and a hull to make that bus move! Ha!

Our boat has 2, 425ph diesel engines and the boat weighs 31,000 lbs empty. Add 400+ gallons of fuel and 100 gallons of water to that as well as all of our stuff and it dogs for a while until we burn some fuel and get lighter. Ahh But when we're running, there is nothing better in the world for our family. Sweet!

Any time you need a guest...jus' sayin.

How about your own private luxury submarine...with a pool and helipad?

I'm still thinking about one of those mini-houses. There was a name for communities with those 'small-ish' houses, and now I can't recall.

Wow!

The only issue I see are the dozens of 911 calls when people see it in the water.

I think these RV's are neat but........They go so slow over mountain passes that it's annoying. There is a 5 car rule here but they don't mind it. The other thing: if you or me (it happened to us) are camping at a forest service spot, these people drive in and keep their generators running all night--noise and lights and pollution--
