Flying Boat

Flying boat? The one thousand and one question that comes into my mind is “Why do you need a boat that flies? Isn’t it a boat supposed to sail on water?”. Whether you like it or not, New Zealand inventor Rudy Heeman has created a flying boat that basically flies at a level of 1.5m above water instead of sailing on the water.

The guy spent about 800 hours in building this flying vehicle boat. And he’s been recklessly testing this flying vehicle boat. Anyway, this flying boat or vehicle doesn’t need you to have a pilot’s license to fly it , as it can’t rise above what’s called “ground effect” and is considered to be a maritime craft and falls under maritime law. That’s why it should be called a flying boat, and also it uses an air cushion which relies on water. The best is it definitely lets you travel in much higher speed than the boat that sails on water, as this flying boat can reach a speed of 98kmh.
