The park is less than 20% of the Everglades. There is plenty of public

That is not what the guys are saying around here. The amount of
unrestricted public land is rapidly approaching zero (the government
owns or controls more than just that one park).
There is certainly some privately owned land in the swamp that hasn't
been drained for sugar but it is not "public access". Even those
people are getting government pressure. ~10 years ago was the last
time I was on an airboat and even then they were complaining about how
few place we could go.

EGNP is owned by the US government. The rest is owned by the state
except for some that is owned/controlled by the Native Americans.
The state is becoming as restrictive as the feds. Big Cypress,
Fakahatchee strand and Picayune strand are all limiting ORVs of all
types

Including airboats?
