Why would anyone want a motorhome that can go in the water. What are you going to do once you're in the water. Fish?

Having fished all of my life and having seen many boat lauches, I can see nothing but difficulty and problems with a motorhome like this. The section of the boat launch ramp that is underwater is usually gravel or if it is concrete it is cracked from erosion and wave action. Unless this thing has front wheel drive, I can't see how it could come out of the water! Maybe you are supposed to BACK UP to the boat launch ramp and then drive out in reverse.

I wouldn't touch one of these things with a 100' pole!

Just my .02
