Been working on bringing back the Airboat Directory, which is something we had on SA several years back. There's a new link in the header above or just click here: Directory - Southern Airboat I know there's a ton of vendors not listed, so if you don't see someone listed that should be, let me...

Bad news...we lost the best dog we ever had last August. She died at home naturally with no suffering and no vet needle so we were thankful for that. Dixie was 11 years old. Good news...we have a new gsp in the family. We call her Natty. She's gonna be a fine dog I do believe...just gonna...

Sorry, lawsuits are for everybody when it comes to firearms these days IMO. As mentioned in the thread, there are some websites out there that are built around firearms and allow their members to list them for sale. I'd appreciate it if those sites were used for that kind of stuff instead of...

Just wanted to post this in case anyone's looking for trim tab ideas for a glass boat. It's pretty much set it and forget it. It pops up when you push the boat off the trailer on dry ground. I used a 7"X4"X.090" thick aluminum hinge w/1/4" polymer fastened to bottom, 3/8" S.S. threaded rod &...

Gonna be switching the forum & gallery over to a different platform (Xenforo) sometime today if everything goes okay. The forum will be down for a few hours and that's if everything goes alright. Pretty sure there's gonna be some problems to work out with the switch because of the size of the...

Sorry about the recent downtime. Looks like I might need to start looking for a better host for SA. Rick

Sorry for the downtime today. Had some unexplained problems with the server starting at around midnight last night. Hopefully we'll be good to go now. Rick

I need to mig some flat bar & angles to my stainless rigging to mount a few things ie., fuel pump & filter, gas tank, battery tray, etc.. I have a little Lincoln Pro 135 welder with a bottle of 75/25 argon/co2 and a bottle of 100% argon. Pretty sure that neither bottle is best to mig SS, but...

Old airboat magazine that Paul Dixon (RIP Paul) sent me years ago to scan & post. The whole magazine can be read here: http://southernairboat.com/pdf/5-74-magazine.pdf...or by clicking the image. It was acturally posted quite a few years back...just thought I'd bring it back for old times sake...

Just curious about header tubing size. The used 540 I bought for the old boat that I'm re-doing only has 1 3/4" diameter tubing for headers. Is that biggest enough? If not, I'm gonna change headers and was thinking about those Norman Clay headers with the muffler welded on. Any opinions on...

I apologize for the downtime. The SA server had a major crash and it has taken the web host this long to get it back up & running. Been sittin here like a lame duck not being able to a damn thing. The so called backups that this host uses as a selling feature were of no use to me since it...

Well I finally gave up my old Diamondback to my grandson. In the process I acquired his old fiberglass gpu boat which I planned on fixing up a little and selling before moving on to something else. First thing I needed was stringers. Didn't know who to call, but remembered the Suncoast II...

Just got word that Whitebear (Scotty Thompson) passed away on April 15th. Not sure of the cause, but was told it was unexpected. Scotty was a good guy and helped with this site for a lot of years...RIP Scotty. Rick

...has been removed at the original poster's request. He posted that Scorpion was gonna fix his boat and he was gonna start a new thread. His username has also been changed to FL Boats if anybody wants to PM him. That's all I know. Rick

...wish I could say what caused it, but have no idea yet. Pretty sure it was a server problem though, Rick

...your grandson puts your ass in the back seat and takes you down the trail you been wanting to run all week lol. Oh well...life ain't that bad in the back seat either lol. I think Ken (the original SA Olf Art) would've enjoyed seeing Tristan in the driver's seat...RIP Olf Art. Ricks

Sorry, but I'm working on it. Just don't have a solution yet. Rick
