Impending move in around 5 weeks that gives easy access to miles of beach plus a 3 acre field got me to thinking about a long time urge that I've
never persued, a hovercraft.
Well once the house is how we want it I've been given permission to persue it, I think the ride down the beach to what will be our local swung it
so, anyone on here give me any pointers? Just looking for somthing usable carry 2 maybe 3 people not after a race craft though you never know what
urges may follow

remember when I was at school in the 70s these were being made in on of the technical departments using bike engines and a massive fan the went well across the school fields
Point taken re "hovercraft" I was asking for advice after all, however you may want to edit your response a second time though, it's
still full of errors
Had a quick look at your build blog, looks interesting though I think it will be a cheque book craft rather than self build for me, somthing four
stroke and cruising.
Bloke I work with started his working life the day he finished his A levels at a hover craft builders that would be late 70s he could be a useful
guide but is not on here.
If you aren't building it why not have a look at an Argocat as it might be a bit more useful about the neighbourhood you can pick up old ones for
smallish money and it is amphibious

Someone bought me one of those experience day things with hovercraft, I couldnt control the sodding thing at all.
Mt daughter who at the time was a non driver had the thing zipping along, going round corners at full chat and generally making me look a right
prat.
