Not quite. Look at the specs. You can go anywhere there's a little bit of water with this thing. LINK

While the AlumaSki could be used in any number of places, it's intended particularly for exploring shallow, rocky rivers that are too narrow for a boat and too fiberglass-unfriendly for a Jet Ski. It has a very stable almost-flat bottom, drawing 6 inches (15 cm) of water when idling and 2 to 3 when moving – depending on the speed and payload.
Power is provided by a water-cooled, electronic fuel-injected Yamaha 1,052cc 4-cylinder, 4-stroke marine engine, that provides 110 hp. The craft is reportedly able to travel at up to 60 mph (97 km/h).

In order to keep the weight down, the non-hull parts of its body are constructed of thinner marine-grade 3/16-inch aluminum. It has a dry weight of 950 lb (430 kg), can carry up to 1,000 lb (454 kg), and is 12 feet long by five feet wide (3.7 by 1.5 m).
I'll certainly wait for the price to drop though.
