Small amphibious car takes to the Coventry Canal

Approaching Glascote Top Lock on Monday I could see what I initially thought was a model radio controlled boat in the water.


When we got closer I saw that it was, in fact, a toy amphibious car.


A small boy was controlling it - under the instruction of dad.


As far as I could tell, the propulsion was merely by the rotating wheels. I don't know how the steering was done - perhaps the wheels one side turned slower to turn it that way.


The waterways are full of surprises!
