Hovercraft Experiment

What's the most expensive thing you have messed with and almost totally destroyed - besides your Porsche?

What's the most expensive experiment you have funded yourself?

My hovercraft was worth somewhere between $2,500 and $5,000. I had a mishap with it, took it's value down to "not operable", not a good thing.

I've been rebuilding it, and like the Bionic Man it will be better than before - I hope.

Last nights test inflation went pretty well (see photo).

I've lived with a finger skirt for 15 years, converting it to an experimental bag skirt of my own design- hope this works out. What was I thinking?

I'm taking it off the milk crates tonight, replacing the clothes pins with proper clips, sealing down the hatches and doing a test hover.

Wish me luck.

The old days, when things were newer and worked right.
