would make a nice get-a-way vehicle...other than that I thought they were gay. Based on the video I saw, I can't see them taking any sort of beating on the trail..one decent rock hits yer hull and thats it...shes gonna sink! I know because every year I see goons on the trail who ride w/o skid plates and they always bust their frames/engines (metal) up. If the dirtbikes and quads they make today still cant take the beatings some of us give em..how is this fiberglass pos gonna hold up???

whats the benefit here? for the guy who cant pull a trailer in & out of the water?

1st thing I thought of was leaky/sinking quadskis.

well now that I think about it..I suppose they would be a fun recreational vehicle for the yuppie family (most likely the target market) types on islands like natucket.. These would probably be a blast for them on the beach and waves I suppose. I wouldnt trust em though.

I was thinking of places that had no boat ramp and no street parking, but from a practical standpoint you'd still need to park its trailer somewhere, unless they can be made street legal.

It would be neat to have in areas of sand flats and bars since you can drive over whatever you can't float over. But you're right, it's probably meant as a yuppie gadget.

Best regards,
Roger

Check your local laws, in Mass unless you own the beach you aint gonna be using that thing anywhere, bad enough the kids have no place to legally ride anymore with regular ATV's and bikes. And that baby is much too wide for any trail riding
