 All was well until I ran itno one hill that was just more than a bunny and
a boat could possibly do in 2 WD, and I ran out of steam and traction about
80% of the way up.  Anyone who has driven in extreme conditions knows what
happens next - gravity takes it back down - except now I have a brand new
boat and no visibility to contend with.

At that point, or at the bottom of the hill before you started to climb, you
set the parking brake, start up the airboat and set it about half throttle,
or to where it is trying to push the car, jump in and go for it, remembering
to slow as you crest the hill, so you can get stopped and shut her off, or
just leave her running until you get to destination.

Think of the story that would have made.
