It's easy to see the shape of the airboat in this photo. Long metal ridges give strength to the aluminum shell. The seats are simple: wood boards are screwed into the frame of the boat and the corners of the back of the bench are rounded to avoid hurting your leg when you step in. Yes, I'm sitting in the driver's seat. I work as a car mechanic in Geneva, so this is an interesting moment ; to be sitting in front of a car engine! The large yellow wire cage behind me protects the blades of the fan from hitting things (and people). It's a very loud motor and I put soft plugs in my ears to protect them from the loud noise.
