I want one

The Puffin does seem to be good, but I would put the Hoverwing as the perfect cache mobile. It can go on land (roads), bog and marsh like normal hovercrafts and of course water too like a normal hovercraft. But when you go fast enough, using the ground effect, it can fly too so any big rivers, lakes... caching in style!! ;)

Well worth a thread-resurrection: http://web.orange.co.uk/article/quirkies/W...ssibly_go_wrong Want!

 

Well for me it would have to be something like these. Not very green of me but I would hate to cache without a land rover.

 

You can see over the hedges, see parking coming up earlier, no worries about ground clearance... Plenty of space to store all your caching gear...

Ok my present Caching set up is not to shabby:

But will be putting above on my christamass caching list for caching gear to go in the back :)

Oh come on - you can't beat this beauty:

The Lara Croft custom Land Rover Defender

 

I've seen the original at the Heritage Motor Centre (Gaydon), and she's still fully equipped! Everything you could need to go geocaching in rough terrain, and it even comes with a dock for your GPSr/enabled phone ;)

I like the handles on the sides and back. When you get really rough terrain, you just hop out and carry it.

 

That's not so far from my Freelander, except all the equipment is on the inside, where it's less likely to get nicked first time you park it.

 

But still, a jetpack ... not only offroad, you can use that across fields, up hills, across rivers. Barbed wire fences no longer an issue, just vertical take-off from one cache and vertical land to the next.

 

And it's not that far in price, either.
