How the heck do those drives not suck in rocks and sand? And how thick are those hulls? Never saw anything run so good in so little water.

I think I read somewhere that the hulls are clad in UMHW (same as an ice boat) and are replaceable which would make sense. UHMW is nearly indestructible and very slippery.

Haven't quite figured out how it doesn't suck in rocks and sand!!
