The Mother of All Modifications---A Vanaboat
« on: August 02, 2007, 07:54:03 AM »
This has got to be the Mother of all Modifications to a Vanagon!!!!!He fastened a propeller on the engine shaft and built a hull around the body. He and two other guys, one in a Toyoda and one in an English Hearld set out to cross the English Channel. Unfortunately, the Hearld and the Vanaboat didn't make it and sank.







There are 4 videos of these crazy guys building these crazy aquatic vehicles. Check them out here.

Looks like he needed just a bit more boat.  Its setting pretty low in the water.
