Jerry shared this CJ-5 Boat combo. It has what appears to be a Florida registration, though Jerry notes it should on the hull. Anyone know more about it?

Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

It is typical of the “Look at ME” types with too much money moving to Florida lately. A waste of a Jeep AND the boat… IMO. Jerry is correct, the registration is required to be placed “clearly visible from the side on the forward 1/3 of the hull in contrasting color with 3″ minimum sized numbers and letters and the current Florida decal”. But, rules don’t seem to matter to those types. They like the attention and will “just the fines”.
It was probably some old fiberglass body off a Jeep project that went awry or fell into disrepair that a Jeep guy decided to make into his boat. Who cares what it cost him and what business is it of yours to criticize him for it. His love for his CJ5’s probably sparked this idea and let him take his love for his Jeep out on the water with him. As far as your ‘look at me’ I see it to be No different that someone taking his old Jeep to a car show or a Jeep event. Just another Jeep guy having fun
JEEP BOAT from PLANET B=I=Z=A=R=R=O
JEEP BOAT would be a lot more interesting if it was powered by the Jeep through a PTO and not a SUZUKI OUTBOARD !! — flip-side , JEEP BOAT looks to have a hollow JEEP with no entrails — take it to BURNING MAN and pray for rain ?
I agree with Stevek on this, money and power rule the world, “Man overboard”.
Care has to be taken in starting the engine.
You don’t want it flooded.
