Yacht Tender, James Bond-Style

February 21st, 2008 · by Tim Flanagan, Managing Editor

Here’s a great gift idea for the ostentatious mega-yacht owner in your life. This would be especially appropriate if the boat has a dinghy "garage" in the transom. What better vehicle for a "garage" than a "car", eh?

Plus, it’s a zero-emission electric vehicle, which should appeal to all those nutty eco-friendly tree-hugging mega-yacht owners.

 

But I joke. This is a genuine, operational vehicle, after all. Rinspeed’s "sQuba" (see the big "Q"?) made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show, as reported on AutoBlogGreen.

I grew up on James Bond books and movies, so there’s no use denying it: I love this thing. It’s hard to describe the sheer elation young gentlemen of a certain age experienced during this scene from 1977’s The Spy Who Loved Me

Just imagine little 12-year-old Tim: "THE CAR’S A SUBMARINE! OhMyGod, THAT IS SO COOL!!"

Alls I’m sayin’ is that it would make a great Navagear.com "company car", if anybody wanted to donate one to us.
