I dont' see why they would call this a 'bubble' boat seeing there's
little 'bubble' about it, but it does look like it could be fun, that
is *IF* you can find clear enough water to use it.


Apparently, the designer gave it that name.... doesn't make much
sense, though, does it....


I'm guessing that the project went Tango Uniform, sincewww.bubbleboat.comnolonger resolves to an active address....

You're right, Gene. it didnt' make much sense, and i didn't realize
that page was almost 4 years old. still it's kind of a cool little
craft but would be utterly useless around here. *But seeing it was an
Austrailian company, I suppose they would have enough clear water on
lakes etc to have 'em down under.


eh... who knows?

There are lots of places where this would be fun. The Keys springs to
mind. Where we were in Nassau you could see bottom in 20 feet of
water.


Oh, i know. but from where I live it would be great, 'just about
anywhere but here'

LOL!
