damn, i should open a course like that here in Buffalo. where do i buy a hovercraft?
thats not drifting… thats the way a hovercraft has to normally maneuver.
Those things dont change direction at speed very easily
Theres a huge huvercraft in Olcott NY, just rotting away after the company that ran it went under…
I wanted to make a hovercraft last summer but never got around to it. Myth busters made 2 and they actually worked. I figured all I need to do is add a little more engineering into it and have a kickass toy for the beach :tup: cruise on water or land
Where?
i dont remember exactly where, its right next to the harbor though, on the east side, its kinda hard to miss, even though its tucked behind a building. Theres the BIG hovercraft, and a little one too. They were intended to take passengers back and forth to toronto, but, like I said, the company went under.
Actually I think they have 2 of them there. From what I was told they used to shuttle people from Olcott to Toronto.
My dad is big time into hovercrafts. He built a single seater about 30 years ago. He still wants to build an enclosed 4-6 seater. Plus the bonus is you can use them 365 days a year, land, water, snow, ice, etc…
The City of Buffalo owns one also. Last time I saw it was in a lot near Chef’s restaurant.
I remember an old junkyard wars episode where the 2 teams had to make one each and then run through a course. It really wasnt TOO involved and would make a freaking awesome toy for around the yard.
