This D.U.K.W. AKA Duck boat in good shape and has been titled for landwater use. It previously has been used to provide water-based tours on local lakes in Kansas. To meet safety standards a fire suppression system has been installed and now meets tour regulations (as of November 2016) and seats 18 passengers. The drivetrain is in good shape and it drives down the road without issue. Brake system was recently inspected and repairs made to make it suitable for road driving. This is a water tight and great running Duck.
The DUKW is a six-wheeled amphibious truck designed by a partnership under military auspices of Sparkman and Stevens and General Motors Corporation during World War II for transporting goods and troops over land and water and for use approaching and crossing beaches in amphibious attacks. It is a modification of the 2 ton capacity "Deuce" trucks used by the military in World War II.
This is a very clean and great condition Duck.
