Sometimes you see the darndest things on the highway:   I spoke with the owner about it, so I know what it is and what it does but I thought that I'd keep you guys in the dark for just a little bit.

Yep, that was my first impression - a converted duck!
Lots of places use 'em for water tours.

The "duck boats" we have around here are converted WWII era amphibs. That thing looks to be purpose built for sightseeing.

Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent. But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent. Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep. In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.

 It is a "Duck" of sorts,  The company has two plants one in Rochester, NY and the other in Ridgeland, SC. This one was on its way from the NY plant where it was built to the SC plant where it will be painted and then shipped to the Grand Caymen Islands. The guy driving it was the owner of the company, which after checking out the website I find it impressive that he is that involved. Check them out they build some really COOL things..............    http://www.terrawind.com/
