The last weekend we used the hovercraft. The spring ice is like a sponge and about 20 cm thick and it won't hold a person. Only way to get to the island this time of year is by hovercraft or airboat.
During the last run a few hours after this video was taken the 46 HP Rotax 503 drive engine had a catastrophic failure. We spent the afternoon being dragged by another hovercraft back to the main land. So right now the craft has a new engine a liquid cooled Rotax 494 RAV with 94 BHP. Will give the craft a lot more power the coming winter.
