From that same site, look in the background. Do you see a yellow WIG? I think the red thing is just a raft (for people to retrieve models), not a hovercraft.

In the Basin, directional irregular water waves can be generated with a multi-element wave maker. These waves are similar to actual ocean waves.

I think there is one of these in Oregon to see how big wave from an offshore eartquake will hit the west coast.
