We were in Paris last week and while sailing down (or up) the Seine we passed a barge with an Amphicar on the rear deck. Dual purpose? Lifeboat and land transportation.

Art, If you drove an Amphicar off the deck of barge (say 18" above the water) I wonder if it would drown?

Peter,
True, but the drill would be, the barge is sinking, crew get into Amphicar and drive away as it starts to float
