Anyone ever think of....................

Putting a motor in one of these?

Would you think it is possible, nothing crazy, just a booze cruize machine for you and your lady!

Yupp,
a 90 with sand paddles sitting on a big fat piece of closed cell ethafoam,
the stuff they make boogie boards out of.

It's getting time to get the water trike ideas flowing again.
We flood (predictably) every winter.

I still like the old innertube tired trike.
Somehow had some huge truck tubes on the back rims/wheels/tires
sorta wrapped or held on with strapping or d. tape to simulate ripples
or 'traction' ridges.

Can't seem to find that picture at the moment but will keep looking.
It may have a name of 'floatationtrike.jpg'
and I think it came off 3ww so it may still be floating around.
(sorry for the bad pun, seemed impossible to avoid)

This is the only one I could find for
float motivation, but I KNOW there's one they had actual
HuGe truck or tractor floatation tire inner tubes
where the tires go.
Wish I could find it, but you get the idea.

Here's an idea, something like a 90 with vintage style tires, and the boogie board material, line it around low to the ground to it can still be driven around like normal, and can slide directly onto the water. It'd be true amphibious then!

Yeah, a nice big piece with holes for the rear tires to simply drop into
and out the bottom.
Those 'real' amph rigs, like the 6 wheelers, seem to go forward in the water with very little tread.

Didn't 'they' have some sort of inflatable ring things to go around jeeps in ww2?
so they could cross rivers and lakes?

A big red will float on its own with no rider, so im thinking if you double up the back tires like you see on some farm tractors, (make it a dulley) and get some 90lb girl on it with paddle tires and 5th gear wide open your rollin' rollin' rollin on the river ~ CCR

SURE HAVE!! I cruise CL every so often, just in hopes I could find one for next to nothing!
