The Mucky Duck Rental puts you behind the wheel of an Argo amphibious UTV, a six- or eight-wheeled vehicle that runs across uneven trails, tracks and countryside and then floats to cross lakes—an experience that compresses land-and-water variety into a single hour of hands-on driving.

THE VEHICLE

An amphibious UTV built for mixed terrain

Known locally as the Mucky Duck, the Argo Amphibious UTV is designed to traverse mud, trails and shoreline and to float for lake crossings—its multi-wheeled chassis makes the land-to-water transition the trip’s defining thrill.

THE TERRAIN

Trail, track and open countryside

The route weaves across a mix of trails and tracks through the Floridian countryside, providing a rapid contrast between land-based driving and the open stillness of lake crossings.

THE EXPERIENCE

Drive, float and repeat—rain or shine

Operated in all weather, the experience compresses varied terrain and lake passages into an active, compact outing ideal for adventurous drivers who want a hands-on amphibious ride.
