BMY Corp. M9 ACE (Armoured Combat Earthmover)(USA)
This is the American equivalent of the FV180, but is a much more pedestrian
affair, resembling a commercial bulldozer, propelled in the water by it's
tracks after a fair degree of preparation.
The info was send in by Harold Smith.
One of the things to be done is to fit a water tight door to the rear.

Bocar or Boocar (1980's)
It is a soft side pop-up Caravan that left the wheels on land (trailer)
It was made in Holland, I'm not so sure about the name.
It was not a success, the law of that time forbid to take luggage in a
boat that was on a trailer.
So exit Boccar. This caravan was for sale on marktplaats.nl.

Borderviewlodge vehicle (Modified Rolligon)
Is one of two Rollagons that they purchased out of the oil fields in Fairbanks,
Alaska, USA. The "tundra tired" transportation vehicles will float
in open water supporting up to 20,000 pounds total weight.
They have changed the differentials and tires on them.
Each tire measures 54" High by 68" Wide and will support (float) 5,000
pounds individually. They have found these vehicles to be the most versatile
transportation possible and ensures that your fishing experience is the
most enjoyable and the safest that they can provide.
They also have a single all enclosed unit that was designed and built
in Canada. The front tires articulate under the cab portion.
I do not lick fishing, but if fishing is necessary to travel in this vehicle, I'm willing to learn :)
