You have seen airboats, the ones with the airplane propeller that run in extremely shallow water as is in 2-3 inches or less.
There is a company just up the bayou from our home that has one with THREE ENGINES. Big and noisy. Ronnie, the owner has outdone himself this time. He has under construction ( almost complete) one that is 30ft wide and 76 ft long. It will have three engines as well but, and this is a big but, they are from a 737 jet and produce abt 45,000 horse power. It will carry 90,000 lbs and have a 110ft crane and carry 4,500 gallons of jet fuel. I can't wait until it is launched and tested!! OH yes, it will be the largest airboat in the world.
