Just getting in to Airboats, plan on running in the Delaware River just South
of the Delaware Water Gap. Been running the river for over 25 years with all
kinds of boats. The current boat is a jet. Still there are those really good
looking spots I can not get to.
Doing all kind of research and reading.
My ideal boat would be 16' with UHDPE on the bottom.
Thinking of using an old john boat for now. Snyder Airboats
in Millersburg has a really nice looking rig. From the pictures I
could make that.
Torn between a B&S, Kholer or a Lycoming 150 HP engine.
I want to keep the engine low in the boat because of the CG.
There are some rough spots in the river I think would flip a
boat with a high mounted engine. Want to keep everything
low except the prop.
Interesting link I found.
