On this site you will find a basic guide to the sport of hovercraft cruising. I hope you find it useful!

The main purpose of this site is to show some of the exciting things you can do and the places you can go with a hovercraft. I've tried to be as honest as possible - all of the good and bad stuff is here. I hope it will encourage and inspire you to look at hovercraft in a new light - they are a truly unique and capable machine that can open up new possibilities to water users. All of the information found here is my own opinion based directly on my personal experience.

Under Building a Hovercraft you will find the build and maintenance diaries for the three craft I have built (so far!).

The Hover trip diary contains a list of most of my hovering experiences to date for all craft.

The videos and picture libraries contain a selections of images of my craft in action together with some other interesting clips (you can also find other videos clips at http://uk.youtube.com/user/jarobhov

Sevtec Scout has been sold Cry
 
I received a call from David Ryan from Ireland asking if I was interested in selling my Scout.  I had no real intention of selling it but his call made me think about it seriously (Matt, the main driver now has a licence to drive a car so his priorities have moved away from hovercraft a bit - fast cars and loose women seem to be the main things nowadays Laughing).  We negotiated a fair price and the deal was struck. 
 
I delivered the Scout to the ferry port and Stranrear where I met David and passed it over.  I'm sure he will have as much fun as we have had over the last four years!
