HOVERCRAFT-LAND-ICE-WATER

 

What is a hovercraft?

 

 It’s a unique vehicle that can travel over land, ice and water. In fact, it doesn’t actually touch the surface it’s travelling on, instead it rides on a cushion of air. That cushion allows it to move smoothly over even the roughest and most unstable surfaces in any weather.

What really sets it apart is the powerful fan at the back of the craft that pushes air downward, creating that cushion of air.

Who uses them?

On the one hand, this is a really practical vehicle that allows people to get to difficult-to-reach places in even extreme weather. So they’re ideal for search and rescue. As well, people who want to travel to backcountry locations such as hunting grounds, islands in winter or in summer and on ice roads that have not yet frozen completely. Hovercrafts are also very practical for cottagers or homeowners who cannot reach their properties with low or receding water levels. 

But as well, hovercrafts are fun to drive and they can also be a pleasure vehicles.
