You just described every boat ever that's not on plane
My boat drafts like 14" I'd have to hit the bank going 40 knots to have my Keel hit grass. Anywhere my boat hits bottom hasn't been land in a long long time.
The difference is air boats are running where the Keel is on bottom the whole time, and depressing the bottom/bank while doing it.

Wow, lots of opinions.
I live in SC, near Charleston, and we have the same arguments.
Habitat loss, not only from storms, but also from overdevelopment.
Giggers sticking undersized fish and throwing them back.
Every dude in town with family money calls themselves “Captain”, and has a guide service.
People keeping shorts, or keeping over the limit, and not enough green jeans to police it.
The only way to fix the problem is management, restricting size and number limits making the resource more catch and release.
Pressure on fisheries isn’t decreasing, it’s increasing. Guide boats making two 4 hour trips daily keeping limits seven days a week adds up to a significant number of fish removed, maybe limits on guide boats keeping fish will help to an extent.
I’ve read about Venice fishing for many years, it’s on my bucket list to do one of these days. Quite honestly, I wouldn’t want to keep and fish, I’d be happy with catch and release. I wonder how many people go on guide trips, keep fish, then have them freezer burnt before they’re eaten?
