An aquatic vehicle converter includes a boat body having a flat deck with interfacing units for interfacing with a land vehicle, such as an automobile. The rotation of the land vehicle's drive wheels are converted into propulsion for the converter. The interfacing units interface with the land vehicle's front wheels, or rear wheels, or both, and connect to the existing propulsion system of the boat body. The wheels of the land vehicle responsible for steering interface with a steering interface unit. The steering interface unit is connected to the steering mechanism of the boat body. When the wheels of the land vehicle are turned in the direction the operator wants to go, the steering interface unit senses this motion and causes the steering mechanism of the boat body to turn the aquatic vehicle converter accordingly.
