I saw the photos in the gallery too, and was also wondering.

At the bottom of the website, it says: Santa Fe, Argentina.

Now, THAT'S a Southern Airboat!!!!

I sent them an email and invited them to logon.

Their other boat is a pretty sleek little number. Looks to be cored construction. Bet it did a much better job. His idea about a small engine with available parts is pretty smart if it can get them where they need to go. There probably is no AHA in Argentina.

If Moodfood, BPS and Dakota plan a monthly run down there with plenty of advance notice, I'd sure like to go.

It's that chunneled hull that sort of bugs me. I'd not have it on my boat! My canoe is already like that and it makes it stable with the 6 hp outboard on it, but not on an airboat!

There are some fiberglass boats here that utilize this concept.... It works VERY WELL from what I hear.

Matt, I should have added that I don't think that the local hulls here have near as much of a chunnel to them, so they still maneuver well.

Maximo, what kind of engine and prop setup are you using???
