We use them a lot in the industry I am in... Want to piss of people on the lake? Buy an airboat. You think they complain about jet ski's, an airboat will really draw the complaints.
We took our kids this year on a private ride in Florida and it was badass. The boat we were in went around 60 but this was the guys other boat with a big block. Holy hell they are loud but I would love to have one but don't know where you would use it around here.
Loud is right...but would be a blast in the winter! When i was guiding turkey hunters in Florida we stayed at an airboat fishing lodge. A couple hours before daylight every morning, the airboats would start up and head out... talk about an alarm clock!
Alot of people run them on the saginaw bay for bow fishing. There is also a michigan based airboat club that has a poker run with airboats out there to.
loud. everyone will hate you. my mom lived in florida on a river for 6 years and now thinks it will be funny to buy one and put it on the huron river in brighton. they will probably get run out of town.
