Modern snowmobiles DO have suspension. On the track and the skis.
Looks like it could stuff in bigger waves. That and being top heavy it might do a serious nose dive and toss you out the front.

I know nothing about snow mobiles, but I'm gonna guess your standard snow mobile isn't going to cost anywhere near what that boat cost.

It looks cool and it also looks like the design works.

But when I look at it I see cleaning times tripled at the very least.

Hopefully some of the techno will transfer over or help design engineers improve boat design. Thats thinking outside of the box for sure.
Unfortunately I couldn't afford half of it. Lol.
