The Gibbs Quadski is an amphibious quad bike/ATV, launched in October 2012 by Gibbs Sports Amphibians. The Quadski is a 4-stroke, amphiquad that converts to a personal watercraft. It features a top speed of 72 km/h (45 mph) on both land and water, a proprietary marine jet propulsion system, and wheel retraction. The Quadski can transition between land and water in about five seconds. The Quadski u

ses Gibbs' High Speed Amphibian (HSA) technology, which includes more than 300 patents and patents pending worldwide. Developed and manufactured by a Detroit-based team, the Quadski shares a number of features with the Gibbs Aquada. When entering the water, by pressing a button the driver can retract the wheels into the wheel wells within the vehicle’s body and detach them from the drive train. The Quadski uses a marinised version of BMW Motorrad's 1.3-liter engine from the K1300. In the K1300, the engine produces 175 bhp (130 kW), but Gibbs advertises 140 bhp (100 kW) for the Quadski. Power is further curtailed to about 80 bhp (60 kW) when in land mode. On water the Quadski uses stoneguard-protected intake, which draws in water before directing it through the engine driven impeller, which with the stator blades and nozzle propel the Quadski at high speed. The steering nozzle at the Quadski’s rear directs the vehicle via the handlebars. The Quadski allows for over two hours travel time on the water. Its range on land is up to around 600 kilometres (370 mi). It went on sale in January 2013 in Florida and is now available in selected regions of the United States with a starting price of about $40,000 (USD)

The controls on the Quadski are simple. A watercraft/snowmobile style thumb throttle are on the right handlebar, the transmission electronic shift button, starter, and brake are on the left, and the key and wheel retract button are on the panel between your knees, along with a small storage area. Ahead of the steering column is an excellent digital display.

We had a blast on the trails with the Quadski. Shifts are smooth as silk thanks to the BMW transmission and the thumb operated Electronic Shift system, and the 1300cc motor has excellent power. Notice the huge, proprietary jet pump at the rear.

On water you can push the Quadski hard and it responds amazingly well. It’s extremely stable and we love the 175hp BMW engine which gets the Quadski up to top speed quickly. 45mph is plenty fast on a watercraft!

Mike O'Malley looks over the Quadski, an amphibious personal watercraft that can hit speeds of 45 mph on both water and land. O'Malley, who is visiting from Chicago, said, "If I had lottery money, yeah why not?" when asked if he was interested in buying the $40,000 vessel on display at the Tampa Bay Boat Show. The event, which runs through Sunday at Tropicana Field, features area boat dealers, manufacturers, and the latest in boating and fishing supplies. The main floor will be filled with new boats, trailers, docking and safety equipment and other outdoor-related exhibits. Hours today are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
