Ok on an airboat

[EatMoreFish]

This is only one of many from back in my airboat days. I will add some more later<br /><br />As you may or may not know airboats are like 4 wheel drive boats they will go through anything (almost) dry land, up hills down the road and sometime even in water. Well the black mud here in FL it like glue at times. You hit it you stop!<br />Well my wife (girlfriend at that time) wanted to sit on the catwalk at my feet so she could see better rather than in the seat behind me. I hit some of this mud and the boat stopped but she did not. She bounced around in the bottom of the boat like a fish out of water. At first I laughed (It was funny looking still is) but she end up with a cracked shoulder bone. Took some time to get her to go airboating again

Re: Ok on an airboat

My uncle had an airboat and my girlfriend (at the time wife now) was with us. We were running with the airboat engine with a barrell full of bowfished carp and such when he got it hung up on a stump. Anyway My girlfriend and I had to get out to lighten the load and push while he drove to get ut off the stump. I will never forget what she looked like standing on a stump holding onto a small bush to keep dry with a realy worried look on my face as the airboat and uncle sped away and then got hung up agian. Thankfully today she is now not as citified as she was and would get out and push with me.

Re: Ok on an airboat

You airboaters are a different breed.<br /><br />I once read an article in which the airboater being interviewed said "the only thing I have hit that was particularly nasty-was a fence". When asked where on the water would he encounter a fence, his reply was; "who said anything about water"!
