Well at the starting price of 200K and >, I can buy a Z06 loaded Vette and pull up to the dock behind the diesel powered B31 bought with the balance of the money and not look like ghetto trash.

For the man who has everything, including no class.

That sort of puts things in perspective doesn't it? There have been several attempts at car/boats in my lifetime and they've all ended in the same place...nowhere. The one shot of the car beating out the Go-Fast boat was interesting from a marine architecture/hull design point of view though. Having spent my life in the advertising business, I'd say it was a pre-shoot set-up. Walter

im sure we could find a go fast boat to shut down the car. when i was growing up i worked in atlantic beach and the bridge cost a quarter. there was this guy with an "amphi-car" that drove across reynolds channel. saved the quarter.

Come on now...it's cool and if I had a spare 2 large, I might consider it. At least more then I would consider a Go Fast...I'd get real board after the first day or two with that.

I have seen people spend more on less usefull toys...and it would look reel good with a set of Rupp Knock-Downs. LOL
