  • I remember fondly as a young lad of around 9-10 yrs old going on an airboat ride in the Florida Everglades with my Mom - maybe 1958 or so. We both loved it even though it was very loud! I got a kick out of how fast it accelerated once it went from pure water onto wet reeds. Great fun!

    • On the 80s hover crafts were supposed to be the big thing . But people realized it's cheaper and easier to do this instead.if you can go though bogs and mud with it Should be no problem going across frozen ice and snow .

    • The big lever is connected to the 2 rear 'air rudders' to direct the air flow to steer. Some guys use a hand throttle while others use a conventional gas pedal mounted to the deck. There are no brakes btw............😊

      @ToddsHouseofSpeed-uq5sp@ToddsHouseofSpeed-uq5sp2 ай бұрын

    • With the stick positioned on the right, pulling back you steer to the right, pushing forward, the boat steers left. These are race boats, so, as Todd mentioned, throttle can be foot or stick mounted. Most non-race boats have foot throttle, because the captain might be doing other activities, such as gigging for frogs. Some old timers actually had foot steering. I tried it, but, didn't care for the control.

  • Why are the props on these so different to aircraft props? Most planes have 2 or 3 bladed props, these boats have many more - is it because of the relatively low speeds?
