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.
Who are they?
AnewCanadian company based in Toronto and
Parry Sound, Ontario. Although a new company, the hovercraft team has decades of
experience running businesses in Canadaand
