The Inshore Rescue IH-3, a custom-built hovercraft designed for Ulverston Inshore Rescue

The Hovercraft Society has published the first issue of its Light and Recreational Hovercraft Directory, created to place a spotlight on hovercraft-related events, rides, hire opportunities and service around the world, as well as sharing the details of internationally based hovercraft builders and suppliers.

Alan Bliault, technical secretary, The Hovercraft Society (and a contributor to articles on hovercraft and surface effect ship design in previous issues of Ship & Boat International and The Naval Architect), says: “Our primary aim with this directory is to enable people to connect with organisations that support activities related to recreational hovercraft. Formal and informal events are important to get to know what hovercraft are all about: the excitement and pleasure they can bring, whether piloting or in supporting or attending.”

The 50-page directory can be downloaded for free at https://www.thehovercraftsociety.org.uk/light-and-recreational-hovercraft-2/
