I use to do wetland restoration in South Louisiana. We used an airboat to blast around the marsh, so that's how I recognized the prop with the re-enforced metal edges. Airboats are dangerous, but a blast to drive.

My dad used to live in the Everglades, (Everglades City) back during Prohibition. Had my first airboat ride in 1957. Every chance I get (infrequently) I'm in one again. Not too many places you can go to raise a little hell anymore unless there is local knowledge available
