Hovercrafts seemed like they could have been useful and fun, but they were so loud!

I tried it once Calais to Dover, the noise inside was deafening, shook like a jackhammer and windows swimming in seaspray. Once was enough.

install a set of jet wings then drive it 100mph (160.934 Kph) straight down the middle of the river and fly off over the 200 foot tall ( 60.96 meters) waterfalls glide landing smoothly in a field successfully. from the Canadian side to the American side. paint the jet winging hovercraft The United States of America flag one side and the flag of Canada on the other side. matching painted helmet and jumpsuit.

An inspired idea for someone else. Personally, I'm looking for a stationary hovercraft in which to practice the clarinet. --rats

Me too; can't remember where it went from/to (wasn't Dover - Calais). Don't remember it being too bad. D.
