about

'Airboats, Guns & Whisky' from my Some Days Are Diamonds album. Again not a sea song but fitting in alongside the others.
Over the last fifteen years I've been to Florida a few times and found I have a love of a somewhat crazy but useful transportation.... Airboats.
I first saw them as a child on the TV show 'Flipper' and would make Lego models of them. In Florida though, not only did I have the opportunity to ride them, I had the chance on one occasion to pilot one. A superb late afternoon at Everglade City during a 3000 mile motorcycle journey in the USA with my wife back in 2013. This song came out of those rides.
