       I inquired about hovercraft a couple months ago and did not get many
responses, so, if you don't mind, here it is again......
  
     Does anyone know of a company that that sells small hovercraft?
     Has anyone had any experiance with them?
     Can I follow my friends in their snowmobiles, or will I get stuck?
     Can I drive out of the water, up the boat ramp, and onto the trailer?
     What keeps them from spinning in circles?
     What propels them forward?
     Do they all use lawnmower engines like the ads in the back of Popular
      Mechanics show, or, can I get one with an engine from a Honda 1200cc?


Any responses to these ridiculous questions are greatly appreciated.
