For those suggesting little wheels or rollers: In the mud? Really? The only reason the operator is going so slow is safety. The boat has more than enough power to easily get across dry ground or mud flats. What you are forgetting is there is no reverse on it! The operator has to be very careful when he gets around objects that would stop his forward movement.
They should make it where the four engines are on a big turn table, and the turntable rotates one way or the other to steer. You could even have reverse then if the driver was protected by some kind of little cabin to block the wind from the props when the turntable turns 180°. Those rudders just dont get it. 🍻
I always wondered why they do not install a roller system on the bottom?! Could be small wheels, or rollers that barely stick from under the boats. It would h elp so much in getting over ground, and save tons of fuel.
If this massive airboat works for the oil industry it makes lots of money! Face it there is not a better tool for transporting oil rig excavating in the swamp.

GOOD TUNES FOR THE JOB
Man that's one heck of a commercial lol and a airboat.
Can't go wrong with Creedence.
Very powerful aerobot! Super!
*Very best airboats!*
Looks like he needs what's called a mudboat. I forgot about them until I saw this. It'd be interesting to see turbines put on the boat.
Am I the only nut that wants to see that air-boat with a big remote controlled claw instead of that crane for alligator hunting?Hahaha
Now that's a work horse 😎👍👍🇺🇸
Waw great job

What type of Creation is this?!?!
jchip777 , What's the engine configuration on this beast? Thanks, Hans
Awesome..... i see a market in the oil fields of LA
may be inject some of that air or water or both between the hull and the ground ,, go with larger props , hell get 2 Pt6 form a king air 200
+n4120p PT6 engines are REALLY expensive - the only one that's on trade-a-plane.com with a price tag on it is a quarter-million dollars.
It must weigh a LOT
Would have been more interesting with the engine sounds and no music. Heckuva boat, though.
There is obviously a law that says every airboat video must have some sort of southern rock music blaring in the background.
este mostrou tudo.
I sure hope that guy is making at least $1000 per hour cause the fuel and maintenance has got to be RIDICULOUS!!!!!!
Murica.
Awesome boat, but the location looks like it smells really bad
With 2,000 hp, why don't you make a plane instead?
One 0540 would do the job🤣
is this ronnie viper? ha.
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Ronnie Who?
He is an imposter, he took all his knowledge from Ray Robicheaux,
call marks airboats to get the true story about Ronnie want a be
what a waste of 2000hp
lose the stupid music
Only someone with the worst taste in Music could say such a thing!!
+Nathan Fraser We just want to hear the boat without other audio over it. No disrespect to CCR.
