Last year I bought a second hand Tullio Abbate Hydroplane from Italy. We added a 8.3 liter 540 Hp V8 engine in it.

We rebould the boat and added 2 recaro seats in it so we can take a passanger with us during a ride.

For the safety I would like to buy a Air bag system, the same system they use in the Formula 1 and 2 class. When th boat is upside down, a air bag will come out for safety, does anyone know where you can buy these systems?

many thanks
