Hovercraft and the Environment For the majority of people hovercraft are new experiences. For any vehicle to operate economically the drag, or resistance to motion, must be kept to a minimum. On water, the majority of drag arises from the motion of the vessels hull through the water; therefore we can reduce drag and consequentially propulsive power by minimizing hull contact. The hovercraft achieves this by using low-pressure air to form an air cushion underneath it, thus actually lifting the hull clear of the water. In addition, by using air propulsion to generate forward movement, the hovercraft becomes amphibious, and able to traverse land, soft terrain or water. Being amphibious, the hovercraft can use direct routes across sandbanks, marshes and flats, with no loss of speed or comfort. Environmentally disruptive channel dredging becomes unnecessary, whilst rivers and tidal estuaries present no problem for the passage of the vessel. Previously inaccessible areas may be accessed economically with little or no impact on their environment.
Hovercraft and the Environment Damage to the shore environment, such as beaches, mudflats and vegetation is virtually nil because of the hovercraft's low pressure "footprint". For example, the average human being when standing on a beach exerts a pressure of some 1.4 KG per square inch underfoot, rising to 11.34 KG per square inch when walking. The average hovercraft by comparison, exerts a pressure of approximately 1/3 KG per square inch on the surface regardless of speed. This "footprint" pressure is less than that of a seagull bird standing on one leg! All Airlift Hovercraft are fully amphibious and create virtually no under water noise, just atmospheric noise levels that would be typical of a diesel truck or bus. The fact that there are no underwater protrusions or propellers eliminates the usual thrashing noise signature associated with conventional propeller driven craft, as well as negating any possible seabed erosion when operating in shallow waters. It therefore becomes obvious that fish and other marine life are in no way affected. This has been confirmed by independent scientific tests. The major noise factor with any hovercraft is the propeller noise, which in any case is largely directional in characteristic. Airlift Hovercraft's hovercraft propulsion propellers have been designed with low tip speed to minimize atmospheric noise.
HOVERFLYER 580
HOVERFLYER 580 On top of its undeniable performance as a world class tourist attraction, the fully amphibious HoverFlyer, which was first manufactured in 1989, has also proven itself an adaptable and sizeable work craft. The HoverFlyer’s suitability to perform diverse operations is endless. Some of those include seismic surveying, aquaculture, weed spraying, flood rescue, stock feeding and oil rig support. Additionally, private owners take full advantage of the HoverFlyer as a yacht tender, to access fishing, diving, holiday house and hunting areas. Keeping in mind the demands and pressures of the 21st century, the HoverFlyer design has recently been upgraded to include a new deck mould which provides a slightly increased length and more modern styling. Current models also have the Subaru EFI engine and auto clutch fitted, which provides spirited performance and increased payload. An optional road trailer makes this design easily transportable and practical at every level.
