I bet that plow helps a lot in the water.

You may think that is funny, but apparently CruiseShips International, based out of Alaska and Iceland, do not. They have employed 10 of these Argo Conquests, with IBB's (Ice-Berg Breaker (patented)) Not only do they move 100 ton icebergs either out of the way, they actually can break them up! As you can also see in the photo, this particular model has an optional outboard motor for hooking up to your everyday CruiseShip and actually pulling it through troubled waters!!! Simply amazing to say the least!

Have a berry Merry Christmas

I could see where the plow could be useful, you did all see the movie "Titanic" didn't you! Hehe. Maybe it is to clear the seaweed in the summertime also!?

Here are some inside pics of my Max.

Controls (left to right) - choke, ignition/lights, heated throttle cable. You can see the amp meter near the center of the dash. The throttle is on the right stick and the five gallon fuel tank is under the dash. You can easily see through it and see if you will make it home or not. hehe

Here is a pic with the top up. This makes it really easy access all parts for maintenance. Of course there is the engine and about half the transmission is veiwable behind the engine.

Max-drive question- From your engine to your wheels, what is the connection? Does a shaft drive everything and what connects each set of wheels? Does that make sense? Do each of the axles have its own differential or what? If one wheel on one side or all the wheels on one side has less traction than the others, what does it do?
