Amphibious vehicles get personal

The world's first personal sports amphibian, the Gibbs Quadski, will is on display at this year's Tampa Bay Boat Show. Developed and built in the U.S., the amphibian utilizes water-jet technology, and is powered by a BMW engine and transmission. The Quadski transitions from land to water in less than five seconds and reaches planing speeds in seconds. The all-new HSA weighs 1,300 pounds, is equipped with a 15-gallon fuel tank and retails for about $40,000.
