It would be kind of fun to drive from land to sea and back again though - very neat in that regard. That'd I'd seriously do - without endangering anyone of course.
The transitions are cool, no big splash as with other amphibians though. Just very odd and smooth. Sometimes at great speed or on steep angles of entry or exit there can be a little bounce like an aircraft lifting off the runway. I swear part of my brain tries to look back though nonexistent eyes in the back of my head just to make sure what really happened just happened.
