So what kind of insurance do you get for it, boat or car?

It's called the Gibbs Aquada. Price: $250,000. It's from a company based in the UK. They've been out for a bit. They also have a Hummer-type amphibious vehicle called the Humdinga.

Taken from the Wikipedia.org article:
The Gibbs Aquada is a high speed amphibian vehicle developed by Gibbs Technologies. It is capable of speeds over 100 mph on land and 30 mph on water. It uses revolutionary technology, combining the design of boats and wheeled vehicles to create a unique and effective vehicle. Rather than adding wheels to a boat design, or creating a car that floats, the Aquada was designed from the ground up to perform reasonably in both fields.
In 2004 Richard Branson, billionaire owner of the Virgin Group, set a new record for crossing the English Channel between England and France on the Aquada in 1 hour and 40 minutes.
The car is often compared to the submarine car in the James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me.

You might wanna get both insurances... just in case accidents happen wherever you might be.

By the way, it's not 1995... it was launched in 2004.
