Did anyone catch the Top Gear episode where they each had to build an
amphibious car? One put a 250HP Honda outboard on the tailgate of a ToyBoata
HiLux which worked pretty well until he turned too fast, took on water and
rolled over. Another used a VW Vanagon but he sheared off the prop on
entering the water...but it did float well. The last guy took a Triumph
Herald and added a mast, sail and rudder and it worked great. His only
problem was the clutch got wrecked in the water so he couldn't drive the car
out. The show is back and funnier then ever.
