Every air boat or hovercraft I've ever seen all have the same problem in common. They are extremely loud because they have non-muffled exhaust pipes. Plus, it is possible to flip it over, upside down, when crossing from ice to open water, or open water to ice, if you are not careful.

For about $40 at www.swap.com, an internet thrift store located somewhere unknown, you can get a good pair of winter walking boots, and get better benefits than what you get with a many thousand dollar air boat or hovercraft. Something like a pair of Timberland, shoes/boots made in Maine, size 11-wide, reg-$119, swapped out at $40 ...... with just a tiny amount of wear on the edge of the soles, you know ..... such a deal!

You know that Moultonborough Fire Dept just sits around all year, all 12-months long, eating fire house, home-made meatballs, and fire house chicken parmigiana a-waiting for someone on a snowmobile or atv or something to break through the ice so's they can zoom out there on their ice boat to probably retrieve a frozen and deceased non-survivor before it sinks into the icy cold depths.

These exotic ice travel boats are best left to the local fire dept, that get's one donated in memory of someone who drowned while driving a snowmobile across the ice. When the fire dept goes out on an ice boat run, they wear a dry suit, pfd, and a helmet.

As Walter Cronkite used to say ....... and, that's the way it is! ....

... blah-blah-blah!
