Hi Tim,

Yea, I saw that on GMA about 4 years ago. I wonder why it's not catching on.

Maybe too expensive?

However....me thinks that in this case, it would be gallons per nautical mile?  :) :) :)

so how stable is this thing when a boat wake hits it? seems that narrow and that tall it would rock pretty bad.

One of my co-workers today suggested that a "submersible RV" would be more fun - I told him that I already have one, you just need to wear SCUBA gear when driving it underwater (and it may take a while for the water to drain out when you go back ashore ;D)

Wouldn't you love to drive down the ramp into the water, yelling NO BRAKES just to create a stir in the crowd. Then take it back to the dealer after the test drive....

Not to worry, there is a lot of marble and granite in it to keep it from rocking ;D  If it is the one I'm thinking of it also has inflatable sponsons when it is in the water.
