Amphibious Driving Houseboat - First Launch

Ғылым және технология

The first ever launch/test of the amphibious driving houseboat, "Beast Of Burden." A detailed documentation of the day's event, sharing the emotion and excitement faced, as Captain Theon Parseghian risked it all.
Big thanks to everyone for coming out to the launch and sharing the experience. Sorry took so long to get this up.
"You can do anything you want to do. This is your world." - Bob Ross
The appropriately named “Beast of Burden,” is a merger between a 32ft houseboat (1967 Jeffboat Sunliner) and a 3-wheel tractor (Rickel “Big-A” Sprayer). Built by Theon of Theonomics. No rational reason why, he just thought it’d be cool.

    You should sell your plans to a french boat company that specialises in amphibious boats for oyster harvesting on the coast. Your house boat could be a most welcome Addition to their product Range.

    Thank you! So far everyone's had a blast on it! The front wheels propel it a little, but not enough to justify the extra slashing they cause. It's certainly not built for speed, but I think it'll be better if I can find a way to streamline the rear wheel/rudder.

    Really appreciate that, thanks! The boat was in pretty bad shape overall, the biggest issue being rusted/leaking bottom. It actually made for a great candidate, because to put the frame/axle in place, called for lots of cutting and welding new sheet metal on. If you haven't seen them yet, you might enjoy some of my other videos documenting the build process.
