I seriously doubt that that prop could develop enough power / speed to get that car up on hydroplaners.

I don't think it'd make a very practical tender for a 30' trawler!

Perfect for driving ashore, after a long nap.

Don't know if it's real, but considering they are getting a thousand plus horses out of those little 4 cylinders now, anything is possible. Amphicars are not a new concept.
However, no galley, it's useless.

It's real, well sort of

RINSPEED HOMEPAGE

Click on "concept cars" on the left hand menu. Scroll down a bit to "rinspeed splash" and the menu choices are on the right.
