At least it actually looks like a boat though Austin. I like the idea though :D

it is a nice idea, where you need to cross a small body of water, with no bridges, but don't want to have to take a boat, and a bus?

Ours is just a creepy tourist attraction (which I have never been on)

From your picture A|A that is a WW2 dukw which is being used. We have exactly the same here in Liverpool with a bright yellow one.
