A wild Cleeter McSkeeter appears... 😁 I was caught off guard to see Cleetus McFarland and Mike Finnegan on this channel. But then again I'm not really surprised after their summer hovercraft shenannigans last year... 😁
The superctaft is just a mockup that has been shown in pictures in the internet for years but doesn't work. It has never run on water and if they make it work, it wont go any faster than 20mph because of the propulsion system. It is well known fact that the smaller the fan, the less efficient and noisy it gets.
This is something that I've wondered about many times when I see Hov. Crafts moving rather slowly . Is it because of not enough power ? or poor skirt design ? or small fan blade size or something else ?
@@johnh1001 Most recreational factory made hovercraft use 30-36" ducted fan size, and mostly range from 37-65 hp, can do from 35-50mph on water or land. Meantime Racing hovercraft using 42" ducted fan and using 120-180 hp snow cycle engines, can reach 60-75mph. The most efficient machines that can do good top speed with little hp are the ones with triangular hull shape with big props. The UH-13p can do 55mph using a 52" ducted propeller with a 27hp lawn tractor engine. The UH-18spw can do 77mph using a 64" ducted propeller with a old 80's Subaru car engine that produces 80hp. I beleive the shape of hull and large prop can make the differece between a hovercraft being slow or fast. The best factory recreational hovercraft with best performance in handling, noise level and top speed by hp is the Renegade. It uses a semitrangular hull, 42" ducted fan mated to a 37hp comercial lawn tractor engine. It can do 49mph with so little power. Fuel consumption is 1.5 gallon per hour at cruising speed.
Whoever put this list and video together really don’t know hovercraft, and will mislead many that don’t know any better. 14 Renegade shows mostly Scat 13 Slider shows mostly a Russian craft 12 Marlin XL also shows Coastal Pro 8 LCAC has so much wrong information I don’t know where to begin. 6 Hovpod is so bad it shouldn’t be in the top 100. (And shows a Marlin) 1 Mercier Jones/ Von Mercier is a complete scam and an embarrassment to the hovercraft industry. No evidence that it works or even comes close to performance claims.
I really want to try Howercrafts but here in Finland dont havd a Howercrafts. Ps that video was awesome and that war howercraft and supercraft looks AMAZING. 😮
A confusing video as it talks about one craft while showing video of a different craft. We have yet to see the "Supercraft" perform better then a lame duck.
It is historically interesting but it misses many commercially useful craft such as The BBV6 / IH 6 + many of the rescue and racing craft of the world.
You will notice that they never show the supercraft in motion. It's like the flying car of the 1990s and early 2000s. Everything was animated and life size models, but no real engines or mechanical parts. It's a money pit looking for investors to fill it's creators pockets with tons of money and deliver nothing after 20 yrs. Thank god for drone tech to give us true flying car tech.
The small one is a waste of space, they're as big as a car but slower, handle worse than a car and has less cargo space because the engine is in the craft. This needs a huge redesign.
40mph is not fast, I thought these things were supposed to travel at least 100mph? That's pathetic and the maintenance to top it off. Aren't there good engineers who can improve on the design? How old is the SR-N4 now? Is it really that impossible to improve this design? I'm disappointed....
Steals videos and then calls a blatantly obvious Scat a renegade. What value are you providing to anyone here? Go do real work or at least real research if you're going to steal videos.

...and you picked an unproven craft to be #1. The Mercier-Jones! Wonderful.
What an exciting way to get around and have some fun!

12 Marlin XL also shows Coastal Pro

Me too

No mention of the Vortex?

Are there any hovercraft with cabins and bathrooms/heads?
How long does it run on 1 time petrol load, and how long is a range ? Any diesel version of this Hoverboat
Absolutely wrong list. Where are Neptune, Hivus, Bufo or ATASD hovercrafts?
Total garage video!
Cool video. But does a hover craft still float on the water if the engine dies?
Yes they float like a boat when engine is off.

I still don't know why I have a weird phobia of hovercrafts! They give me the creeps big time 😱
The SuperCraft is a flying car.
Man whats the name of the first one in rhe intro the blue one..
Absolute FAIL. The crafts mentioned do not reflect the crafts pictured/videoed. Do some research!!!
How many Bond villains did you spot in this video? I know it’s gotta be more than three…

Oh well you can use as a car
You don't need to say multiple and different in the same sentence and where was the SRN 4 or the other hovercraft that can take off a few feet?

The first one does not weigh 2,500 Kg, it would sink, even into the lawn, get your information right.
How can you rate it if it’s not built and a tried unit. You guy must be gearing a back handed here for marketing this crap.
