This video shows a hydraulic apparatus attached to a Jeep Wrangler that essentially turns it into a pontoon boat at the push of a button. Tired of waiting for the ferry in the morning to pick you up? Well, inventor Peter Lammerts has a product for you! Just strap this massive hydraulic lift to your Jeep and drop some floaties down whenever you want to cross a stream or lake. It’s not the worst idea in the world as long as you don’t need a roof rack I guess. It’s definitely cool to watch and man always wants the ultimate vehicle. If only these pontoons could be raised up and used as wings as well. A flying, sea-worthy, trail-rated Jeep Wrangler? Sign me up!

In case you can’t watch the video now, here are a few screenshots.

As you can see in these pictures the floating Jeep is powered by an outboard motor. Not sure if it feeds off the Jeep’s gas tank/steering or if there’s a big pole that passes through the cabin.

Good for him. He built something he wanted and it works.
