Was the Airboat Line profitable during its operation?

  • Highly profitable

  • Marginally profitable

  • Not profitable

  • Records lost

Answer

**Answer: Not profitable.** The Airboat Line faced financial challenges throughout its operation. Despite periods of initial success and popularity, the line struggled to sustain profitability due to several factors, including high maintenance and operating costs, limited passenger capacity compared to other modes of transportation, and seasonal fluctuations in tourism. Additionally, the line's remote location and limited infrastructure presented logistical challenges that further contributed to its financial difficulties.
