How do I get onto highway 17?

[Kaoss]

This is where that chick picks me up in the sand buggy and drops me and I flip the buggy and then I suppose I am to go to the top of that hill by the beach and then jusm the ramp where the bridge is missing but no matter how much speed I have I always fall short of the bridge.

So how did you guys get onto highway 17?

thanks guys I do appreciate your help.

I used the ramp where the bridge is missing and got over the gap ok, I did use the turbo on this though have you tried that?

You gotta use the turbo otherwise its to low speed. at least it was for me.

Ummm where is the turbo button lol?

By default, turbo is Shift. Next time, pay attention to the little help boxes that pop up now and then. Contrary to popular belief, they aren't just there to annoy you.

Airboat doesn't have turbo as far as I remember, but Gordon's suit does and he can sprint for a very short time.

You are right doomed - uk the Airboat does not have a turbo mode, think it might have been an idea to put that info in the options menu. Mind you I don't think the Airboat needs a turbo mode but some people may wonder why pressing shift does nothing.
