I know this is a bit off subject, but my farm is on a river and I have access to the river. Would love to use a Hovercraft after playing on tractors and with chainsaws all day. Does anyone have any opinions on Hovercraft? There is a used one going for $2000.00- Hoverstar by Hovertechnics. 497 cc Rotax motor, seats 2.
Are these things fun?

My neighbor has one. Took me for a ride once and it was a blast. I think the terrain needs to be fairly flat (your not going to climb any ditches). Looks like it takes some skill to operate. I watched my neighbors maiden voyage and it was pretty funny. The biggest thing I noticed, considering you talked about operating tractors and chain saws all day, was the noise and reverberation at certain RPM"s. Probably nerve racking after a while. Definetely need headset type hearing protection. Personally I have plenty of fun on my ATV!
