Destination Miami? Will that be RIB or Watertaxi?
Most of you may have already seen these pictures in the news, but I thought they were worth posting. As cool as those Zodiac Hurricanes may be, making a run from Cuba to Miami in a vintage 1949 Ford taxi is well... just that much cooler! This guy has some great fabrication skills!

Wonderful!

..and to think Richard Branson probably paid a small fortune for someone to design the amphibian "Aquada"....could have gone to Cuba and got it for free!
