Flying Hover craft

This is a toy for the rich and famous…… by Hammach Schlemmer

once you get to the beach you can hop on your hover craft and hover over the waves at 70mph till you get to your favourite beach.

if the beach is packed with other boats as normally is the case in summer, and people get in your path, no need to worry you can just hop over them up to 50 feet in the air thanks to the 34′ wings attached to the craft.

A 130-hp twin-cylinder, liquid-cooled gasoline engine — turbocharged and fuel-injected — drives its 60″ wood/carbon composite thrust propeller while a 1,100-rpm 34″ lift fan inflates its durable vinyl-coated nylon skirt for hovering above the ground.

ts low center of gravity and composite fiberglass/PVC hull enable it to operate in winds up to 25 mph and waves up to 6′ when in flight. Two nine-gallon gasoline tanks provide a 160-mile range.

but i doubt many of the owners of this hovercraft are going to push the fuel to its 160 mile range.

to use in the water or really above the water, it must be registered as a boat.

now onto the price: $190,000
