[VIDEO] This Corvette is One Speedy Boat!

The story behind the name of the Corvette comes from Chevy PR man Myron Scott who was part of the naming committee. Myron was reading the dictionary looking for a word beginning with “C”. Coming across Corvette, a type of warship that provided escort duty, Myron liked the sound of it and thought it would tie in well those who served in World War II, a target demographic for the car. The name stuck and it would spawn a number of nautical-named concepts and models like the Mako Shark, Manta Ray, and the Stingray.

Thanks to this video on Instagram, we can now close the loop and show a Corvette that is actually a speedy boat. You know you have to be a true believer to create something like this and the attention to detail from what we can see is pretty good. Who wants to bet that even has a Corvette steering wheel and seats?
