Wooden Beetle Boat

This guy lives in Venice and carves EVERYTHING from wood. His wooden boats include this Beetle, a Ferrari, a Mercedes, and many others. He's also got a wooden house and everything in it is carved from wood - even the jacket hanging in the wardrobe is wood!

That would make for one weird boat, wheels and all.

I got the pic from a Powerpoint slideshow that was doing the rounds via email. Sorry but I don't have it any more.
