An amphibious trailer that will allow camping enthusiasts to travel both by land and sea is expected to go on sale next year, reports the Daily Mail.
Dubbed the Sealander, the trailer-boat features full cooking, bathing and sleeping amenities, just like any mobile home. When faced with a body of water, however, the trailer converts into a boat, complete with its own outboard motor and double hull to prevent leaks.
"This extends the possibilities of camping and leisure. Whoever travels with our floating caravan can spend free time on both land and on water," explained Daniel Straub, creator of the Sealander.
"It’s just like a holiday should be – up to them and unlimited possibilities. You can settle for the night at the campsite and during the day sunbathe, cruise on the lake or even go fishing for dinner."
Currently, the sole available design is only able to handle shallow bodies of water, but Straub says he is working on bigger models that would be able to handle larger lakes and possibly even the sea.
