    Has anyone ever seen one?
    Video?
    I've emailed Dave but no response.
    Anyone ever had correspondence with him?
    Is he simply not available?
    No wonder there's no footage of his design...

    You're welcome.
    I was pretty pushy. I don't think you'll hear from him.
    I've emailed him before with no response.
    $14000USD and months away from completion.
    No study plans.

    I can see a possible market niche here for Dog Cavalry to sell plans for his sea sled once he has her in operation and well proven - and he should be able to undercut that $14k by a fair bit. :)

    Agreed.
    And he'll have a demonstration model!

    It looks stupid. I did it myself in the bathroom mirror, so it's backwards, and half was done with my off hand, so it's distorted too.

    Surely you'd tattoo the bear?

    We haven't hunted it yet. And then... you're welcome to try. I see bears in my yard occasionally. I go the other way.
