I dabbled in landyachting a few years ago. Terribly impractical form of transportation since you need (a) very flat ground, and (b) decent wind. Great for saltpans and very shallowly-sloped sandy beaches, but not so good for commuting. :-7 Still, land yachts are a helluva lot of fun.
Have you seen this article (http://www.bikeforest.com/cb/cb.php) about two guys who turned their living room furniture into a recumbent bike and pedalled across Canada?
