It is very spectacular watching the hovercraft land and leave the beach here.
You can get within a few feet of it. Close enough to get blasted by the propwash, and the spray thrown up.
Jason, there is a limit on the "roughness" of the sea these can travel over.
I dont know what the ratio of wave height to the size of boat is.
Obviouslt the bigger the Hovercraft the bigger the waves it can travel over.
I have seen this one coming in to the shore almost invisible in spray because of the rough sea.
Very cool -- something hard to find over here.
Do you know if they're restricted in heavy seas? Or can they function basically like rigid hulled boats? Just curious.
