    What do they do .... but a pontoon on the front and double paddle wheels on the back?. Sounds like a Redneck Wave Runner ... lol.

    lol redneck waverunner that makes me chuckle. And the answer is no, there very pluntiful out here. Now to find one in deacent shape is another story. For that size ALL you see is quads. That no suspinsion (sp?) is a big turnoff when your dealing with bumpy dunes.

    they do the same thing down here. they will strap air tanks in the front and build a double wide tire conversion. they use it to float across the san jacinto river and they are unstickable. they actually will go through more then any four wheeler with every hop up part possible can make it through. i have seen them cross the river ( fast current and water about 20' deep). then when you hit a mud hole it will pull right through it. if it is too deep it will scim across the top. i have a pic of one the last time we were at the river bottom, i will see if i can find it.
