This hull would have a hell of a lot more directional stability in clear water, and in any kind of seas, than an airboat. Try cornering at speed, in a chop, in an airboat. In fact, just try _using_ an airboat in anything more than a few inches of waves. They pound like crazy, and are very inefficient. There's a reason why flat-bottomed hulls aren't used on *any* watercraft other than houseboats and airboats: they suck in anything other than calm water.
@@bricology You forgot drag boats...With a fin midship they can turn on a dime...I built many till they fell out of vogue and when the gas octane went south....
You kinda missed the point, airboats have props tips that sound like the second coming when they exceed sound barrier, this is way quieter , that's the point
I've had a 200 hp gasoline powered on since 2006 it looks like pretty much the same thing. The closed loop cooling would be a plus but I've never clogged mine as the impeller that drives the boat is the water pump but a closed loop never has to be back flushed.

Maybe the makers of this thing can loan one to Shelby for a season to show its abilities and he gets the logs! Sounds like a winner winner chicken dinner to me, Baby!
HEY MAN, I BET SHELBY COULD USE THIS BOAT TO ROTO-TILL HIS GARDEN,OR GO FLYING AROUND IN THE SWAMP GOING 100MPH. OLD SHELBY IS ONE CRAZY S.O.B. PAW PAW . IT'S TURTLE SOUP TONIGHT.
there wasn't enough about the unit that makes this boat get through tough conditions... one quick shot of the prop and drive unit..... looks pretty much like a hundred other OD green metal boats and the unique prop system was pretty much overlooked or purposely kept from the viewers.
Be top secret. I think it just has two counter rotating props made out of a very high quality steel, hardened and heat treated ,with massive power so the props cannot get jammed up.
Obviously the prop is coming in contact with everything the boat runs over, my only question would be, how long does a prop last being used in this fashion.
This prop is forged from an alloy only found in mars thus making it impervious to anything this world can throw at it. Good question cause just bush hogged those trees.
There bad ass. This can go where an air boat cant. Like under trees and through thick brush that is dangerous for the wind props. And this is more quieter
This can go where an airboat cant. Like under stuff I had to lmfao hard at that but airboats go dry land and over levees soo i had to laugh there you've obviously never been on a real one. doesn't it make more sense that airboats go way more places than this boat would dream of for fraction the price. Just saying lmfao
Boat should be named "conservation nightmare" Props on the execution of the project, looks very well designed, built, and capable. it's just a shame it's so viscerally destructive.
"Destructo-3000" This boat is a serious piece of hardware, though. I like the engineering especially the closed cooling system. Pretty much unstoppable.
@@bodesbodes9408 its not only about fish, but birds, insects and all other animals that do their stuff in peace. Its good that there are spaces you cant reach with a boat - unless its some sort of utility or rescue boat.
Oh Gee just what we need... You finally get a weekend off and enjoying some fishing and this a hole comes down with his 4x4 with no wheels screaming "Merikkka"!!! Tearing up your fishing hole, trees and vegetation as well.
Add a radar, a missile platform, that special paint, a couple of mortars on bow , ..and the 30 millimeter gun from warthog at the stern, and here ya go... and no alligator can make it alive 😁...

TURN UP THE MUSIC, I CAN STILL HEAR THE BOAT!
Underrated comment
Jeren
I only came to hear the boat... i was disappointed when it sounded like a cheesy video game sound track... 😑😩
Yooooooo😂😂. Legend for this!
Sounded like a friggin Army Commercial on t.v.! Can u say annoying
Nice sharp edge on top of the dashboard. Great for a face plant.
Wow nice sight for criticism
Wow thats the best criticism you can give.🙄
Hahahaha, it is surely a possibility, oops
Hope to see this used in the next turn down for what boat edition video😁
Yeah, but norris u want one.
When you got swamp land to clear, the DR Power Trimmer is what you need.
That why I left a comment saying this is a swamp lawn mower
Hits cypress stump. throws him over the console. boat runs him over and the tiller prop food processes him for the gators and catfish.
lol so funny might happen to him one day lol lol lol lol🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was pretty friggen funny!

A lesson in how to tread lightly and respect the world around us, leaving no trace of your passage.....
The grass will grow back. Its almost like cutting your lawn. Most swamp grass is overgrown so your probaly helping it out
@@samgaither793 I actually cant believe how fast skeg grows, we left one of our swamping trails alone for 2 months and it completely grew back
I'm with IronMountain! The grass may grow back but what else was killed? That's a very diverse eco system
@@jm1178 Fr you know that dude voted Biden 💀
Oh stfu snowflake
Kinda cool but seems overkill when an airboat can pretty much do the same without shredding everything in its path.
The only advantage I see over an airboat is that it can get under low clearance areas were as the height of an airboat might not fit.

The love child of a jet boat and a wood chipper.
Wow so clever how it is so gentle on this beautiful wetland. You would hardly know it even pass though. Just what the world needs more of. Well done.
Aside from the big hole the boat tore through the foliage, yeah I guess.
I thought the same thing but let's be real, mother nature is amazing and would have that trail covered and unnoticeable within a week
@@egomaniac247 except for the dead manatees haha
Bruh if you lay down in Florida for a day youll have trees growing on you.
Haha how beautiful are the wetlands really? And isn’t their enough foliage
Perfect for the Florida swamps , next video dress up the captain as the predador
Those darn Asian carp ... always photo bombing a shot.
THE CARP KILLER!!👍
Damn American people
Can Asian carp be eaten?
no! some mystical unexplained phenomenon makes everyone's mouth clench shut every time someone tries to eat one.....
joe woodchuck yes they can be eaten just taste like shit if ya don't do it right.
-Dave I thought you said we were boating, where’s the god dang water.

Props to the engine for dealing with that abuse
I came back to watch this after a few years. I like this
pretty destructive. Not my first choice for doing this kind of work. Airboats work just fine.
Sometimes u want to dig it out for other to pass and airboats are loud and u can't hear anything at all. They each have their purpose tho
Nice cinematography! Captured the vision for this product! Bravo!
Shelby stanger “The swamp man” needs one of these! Bet that thing will pull some logs!
Shelby lives in near my town. I was just thinking the same.
Maybe the makers of this thing can loan one to Shelby for a season to show its abilities and he gets the logs! Sounds like a winner winner chicken dinner to me, Baby!
Paw paw
He goin buy lots a cocaine wit it
Yeah
@2:10 there's a giant fish that jumps out of the water with an epic music hit at the same time that had me laughing way too hard.
Good eye🤣
I’ll bet Shelby Stanga was the lead engineer on this project.
Here weee goooo🤣

16ft jonboat and a tiller motor you're doing the same thing for a fraction of the cost lol
I thought it was a jet boat, so jet drive and impeller instead of prop
Handled it like a BOSS !
Nice, it crushes everything in its way. How novel.
Yeah, I'm sure our military would love a aluminum boat, to go to the bayou.
2:10 - Fish freaks out of water
Thankyou For Presenting The Strong Man ( That Product )
Man this is AWESOME !!! Wat a blast that must be. A twin .50 cal mount would take it over the top
And a missle system. 'Merica.
Grear! More noise and speed. Just what the swamp needs a super duper swizzle stick.
Satisfying to see it plowing through all this dirt haha
Builder: Do you want a boat or a 4x4?
Millionaire: YES
Now lets see it loaded with a few more guys and gear and check it.
Why is the music so loud ?? You can't even heard the sound of the boat..
It’s a turbo diesel v6, can’t imagine it doesn’t sound like flatulence
Drain the swamp!
Chops up trees, branches, basically any living thing
This is a serious machine for taming Swamp Creatures...
I need me one .. hate swamp creature
Would not want to see this shark bearin down on me in the swamp lookin for my fishing license 😎
Lol
I wonder how well it does in the mud though, this was pretty much that floating grass patches.
Man the wildlife wouldn’t be to stoked with that thing tearing through
Dude is wearing a visor. 😂 what a bad ass! Lol
Real badass wears the visor backwards!

I don't care what any of you may say is have to say looks like something straight out of the Marine corps buddy keep pushing bro
I saw fish jumping out of the water for their lives as shark god approached and with a corvette engine this is the lord of the swamp!
A very good instrument to destroy all the fauna & flora in a swamp ... congratulations !
Tearing up swamp land what an awesome job
The best thing about this video is the bass at 2:12
This does half of what an airboat can do.
Yup, an airboat with a polymer bottom, composite prop and a gear reduction will stomp a mudhole In this boat's ass.
Obviously the prop is coming in contact with everything the boat runs over, my only question would be, how long does a prop last being used in this fashion.

Looks super heavy gonna need 2 like it to get it unstuck on breakdowns

Looks like a super expensive replacement for airboats.

And cheaper on fuel
