My filming trimaran boat "featured" on instructables.com

My favorite website in the entire world is Instructables.com, I will never have enough enthusiasm to communicate how much I love this website!
Today, I received an email telling my inflatable filming trimaran got featured in the water section!!! YAY!!! 

Check it out!
One day, I want to manufacture it to be a "real traveling machine", to cover very long distance in semi-autonomy, sea-worthy. If anyone wants to be involved with the engineering and manufacturing, leave a comment :)

Yes, feels so good to have your work on your favorite website, I feel like I am 10 years old at Christmas!!!
I did this film back in 2006 when I was studying animation in France at the ENSAD and product design at ENSCI! I have also uploaded a much better version of the film I made with this boat, it is 17 minutes long, it is a short road movie:) Play full screen and the sound LOUD! :

*IHub_[under_construction]

The *IHub_ is now at full speed under construction, it is quite impressive to be in the middle of so many computers, metal and wood works, dust, ideas, sweat, sketches, phewww! Energy! I'm proud to be responsible of this construction site, fingers crossed it goes well until the end.
