Just getting in to Airboats and came across this on a web site.
Going to build a mini just do not know the direction as of yet.
Like the B&S 35 and the Kohler 40.

Plan to run the boat in the Delaware River Just south of the
Delaware Water Gap to Easton PA.

Hey ashorn, We just sent a 35 HP Briggs to Performance V-Twins to get
pumped up to 54 HP. ( Al sayes it is 45 HP with the governor ). He does
build them past 60 HP if you want. It just cost more. :lol:

Found some information on the BIG Generac.
If I remember, B&S bought out Generac. It
may have been one part ?? Generators I think.
