Hi Jean Marc and welcome...........do you mean West Coast?.......Maybe I'm just an 'ol farmboy forced to live in a shits city....but...is this some kind of amphibion build? or car "dumping" mechanism used to create artificial reefs ? a kind of new craze for surfers?
A tugboat ? huh What? I dont get it....Flood recovery? Is it like a swamp ski? huh a boat launch? ( maybe the Canadian bit carries the clue ) ? stirrer

I agree with Allan interesting build,something out of the ordinary but cool.

Im guessing this pic below is simular to what your are building.

A little speculation is harmless enough, but remember that forming an opinion based on incomplete information can result in a very misguided opinion!
