Juan: Thank you! Yes, the box could contain the padded boat seats. I drew the Boatomobile in black and white for my first book, WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW, in 1984, but colored it in Photoshop a year or so ago. Today, I would change the odd, aerodynamically-awkward front windshield into a normal angle, and perhaps make the rear end of the boat (and car) boxy and more vertical. I have so much fun doing these things I am surprised it is not illegal.
I LOVE this concept. I have been a fan of your for a little while. I love your Have Fun Inventing book. We share an appreciation for whimsical design. I sent you an email to the email listed on that image. Is that recent? I would love model out some of these concepts and create some fun renders.
Lauren Thomas: I very much want to know anyone who shares a love for whimsical design! The email address is correct; your message got to me today. I am hoping we can get to know each other and share ideas. I need to know more about 3D modeling. We will continue to chat by email.

Seems like the box itself could also be padded seats for the boat. Boatomobile 2.0. Love your stuff.
