Default RE: PICS OF YOUR AIRBOATS

Just found this thread whlst looking for some Hovercraft pictures, and have spent a little bit of time admiring the models.

However, although I don't know anything about Airboats as I'm generally into R/C Aeros, I did noticed that a couple had the fuel tanks fitted 'backwards', i.e. With the filler at the back (and presumably) the klunk at the front.

Therefore, I wondered if this was correct and, if so, what kind of fueling set-up was installed in the fuel-tanks to overcome starvation when the fuel surges rearwards during acceleration?
