Worlds fastest amphibious land speed vehicle
Each year, amphibious vehicle builders participate in a competition for
the world's fastest amphibious "land speed" vehicle and this year’s
winner was a cool looking silver vehicle dubbed Sea Lion that broke the
top water speed record. This year, the award went to Marc Witt, with his
prototype developed beginning in 2006.
It's powered by a 13B
rotary from a 1974 Mazda RX4 to run 125mph on land and 60mph in the
water. The Sea Lion doesn't hold the title officially, but the
amphibious vehicle has been worked on for the past six years and has
remained competitively fast during the course of that time. Its asking
price is $259,500.
