Innovative camping trailer transforms into a boat [video]

Does this guy know that you can just tow a houseboat on a trailer?

35 years ago, in my country -Argentina- was regularly comercialized a similar trailer named "BOYITA" and nowaday there are several of them in use yet.-

You can see it in this link:

After seeing one of these things floating in a lake, off in the distance, how many people will call the police and say, "Hey. There's somebody's camper floating in the lake."?

exactly!

Like dfelix, I too, would prefer a houseboat on a trailer. Afterall, if I'm going to the lake for the weekend, I'm going into the water and it would be far better with a houseboat than a dinky little camper (caravan). Sorry, but I gotta vote 'no' on this idea unless it's light enough to be hauled by my bicycle.

...is usually that you get the worst of both. "Flying cars" is a good example. Looks like a mediocre boat and a compromised camper.
