How Do You Drive An Air Boat?
An air boat is a water-borne vessel that glides across swamps and other shallow water under the power of a large air propeller. It is used to navigate swamps and marches where reeds and thick grass prevent regular boats from traveling. Follow these steps to learn to drive an air boat. Know the risks. The large propeller that powers the boat can cause serious damage in an accident. Similarly, the high speeds and open deck of an air boat require that an experienced or supervised driver handles the boat to avoid injury to passengers. Turn the boat on. First allow the fuel pressure to build. Turn the ignition on and pump the accelerator twice to inject fuel into the engine. Then turn the ignition all the way to start the boat’s propeller. Take the controls. Air boats use a fairly distinct set of controls that are made up of 2 simple sticks. Generally, the left-hand stick is for steering. Pushing the stick forward turns the boat to the right and pulling it back turns the boat to the left. T
