Jet-turbine propelled luxury hovercraft. Luxury charter or private ownership.
High speed and efficient, an alternative to large yachts and motor boats.
The styling looks awesome. How many people is it for? The biggest challange with hovercrafts is the sound problem (coming from the engine/propellors). I wonder how your design could help that challage.
Looks good.... Develop more exterior areas for passengers.. Being outside really should be addressed... But really like the large intake resoulution on ether side... It balances the vehicle well

I agree with osman. These things are really loud. High seas might be a problem.
and it is run on what, exactly? Testosterone? Ground up bits of remote controls? The bits that fall out of razors?
Puh-lease. Unless it's environmentally USEFUL...

Well I'll have a space ship and a teleportation device whilst we're at it. It's about as likley!

Looks more like an updated ekranoplan than a hovercraft. Ekranoplans are capable of much higher speeds, fly high enough above the water for most conditions not to bother them, and have already been tested by Russian military. A civilian, commercial-sized, high speed alternative to air travel would be nice to see, though.

Would this be able to hover over water though? I'm not sure this concept will work with a liquid, flowing object. If it does, it could be faster than traditional boats and offer an alternative to crossing the ocean instead of flying. I wouldn't buy it because I will probably never have the budget to afford it, but it could be useful in mass transportation applications.
very modern, verging on furturistic.. yse i like it, but i agree with guru that it would be great to feel the speed and wind, and there's always 1000s of ways to achieve this whilst keep with your ultra sleek image.
Its well designed very good form but why high speed in a closed body. Luxury can want to feel the speed and wind

I like it!!

Shabo-Its a hovercraft ofcourse it will hover over water...it will hover over anything!
what happens when some spray is sucked into engine? will it flame-out, and sink?
Crap for fishing. I traded mine for a banana shaped glow-in-the-dark privy.
Maybe for the military, or FedEx of the sea; folks who just need speed.
it should also travel at the speed of sound... super speed wonder jet boat thing. oh and fly.

Nice, very artistic I would buy it
I want one!!!!
cool, but does it have the top speed to necessitate a closed roof, now a convertable style roof would be the best.
I like this idea - save the manatees! ;)
