Description

Learn to pilot a real hovercraft with this rip-roaring Leicestershire based experience, an aquatic sensation unlike any other. Begin with a safety briefing before hopping into a hovercraft with a professional instructor and go on to learn a host of essential skills, including throttle control and steering with a rudder on a one-to-one basis. Next, on a purpose-built pond, complete a series of exciting hovercrafting manoeuvres and water to land crossings, putting all of those newfound skills into action. These amphibious vehicles don’t have brakes, which is sure to provide a real challenge. With an impressive aerodynamic design and powerful fan propulsion system, an experience in one of these hovercrafts is unique and never to be forgotten.
