Vortex Sirocco Hovercraft.   We are about to start another production run of this increasingly popular hovercraft. Whilst we have a number of craft to make, we have production space for one or possibly two new craft in this current run.   The craft is an excellent twin engined craft for 2 adults or 1 adult and 2 children (pay load 200kg). The craft is outstandingly stable in operation and when floating like a boat, the design uses a professional loop-segment skirt making the ride incredibly smooth, stable and minimum of skirt wash. This craft is at home on coastal waters, sand, mud as well as inland rivers and land.   Lift is provided by a 13hp Briggs and Stratton vertical shaft engine, mounted mid hull, reducing noise and spray to the occupants, the thrust engine is a 32hp Briggs and Stratton small bore version driving a slow running 4 bladed fan, this reduces noise and allows us to meet the EU Recreational Craft Directive regulations when running at FULL power, unlike some other manufactures.All craft will receive a 12 month certificate of conformity, confirming compliance to the new MCA Manufacturing Code, and craft will be registered in the owners name at the Small Ships Register, all included in the price.
