I remember, back in the 80's, a buddy of mine bought one. He had a condo at South Down
Shores and we were all up their partying in February. He let another friend of ours try it out with his girlfriend on the back and he tried to go through the Weirs Channel.
Well, that didn't turn out so well. They took a nosedive into the water, and the girl went over the handlebars into the water. Wearing a snowmobile suite and boots, she was sinking fast and almost drowned. That was my experience with a Hovercraft. I test drove it on the water when he first bought it, takes a little getting used to.
