I'm not sure this is either Classic or Vintage, so I'm moving this thread from C&V to General Cycling. I see we need a dedicated forum for on the water cycling. :)

Here's a Youtube video of the bike:

Here's a slightly more descriptive article:

Thing fits into a backpack and they say you can blow up the pontoons and fit the bike in 10 minutes.

The pedals drive a small prop, and evidently the front wheel hooks up to some sort of tiller so you can steer it.
