These craft leave our workshop tomorrow on their way to our new dealer "Hovergroup" based in Azerbaijan.

The 3 Marlin II craft and the 2 Snappers are the newest addition to Hovergroup as they sell almost every form of hovercraft available on the market today. They even sell Hover Platforms for transporting large machinery!

Check out their website at www.hovergroup.com

This stunning White Marlin II with all features from fuel guage to rev counter is now on its way to Scotland to be used as a survey craft to access areas on mudflats that cannot be reached by any other vehicle. 

Keep posted to see her soon with all her new graphics on and in action.....

These pictures were taken whilst on the Rhone Raid. The Raid is 660km navigating the rivers of France. There were 3 "Fish" that started and 3 "Fish" that finished.

Mr Nelson Wood was the first across the finish line and although it is not a race, to be first up the final slip way is always an honour.

This picture was taken at the finish line when all 3 of the Flying Fish Hovercraft made it back.

Well done to Nelson, Chris & Jenny...

THE RHONE RAIDERS.

A little while ago we sent a craft to be a tender onboard this yacht in Malaysia and now the owner Mr Christian Spliess has sent us these photo's of the yacht and the Marlin II onboard

Thank you for the pictures Christian, keep them coming...

Decked out in the style of the A-Team this Marlin II is off to it's new owner, none other than Mr Jamie Oliver.

To go alongside his mountain of other toys including quads, buggies & 4x4's this stylish addition will be noticed every where it goes.

Enjoy the craft Mr Oliver and we look forward to seeing you at one of our cruises, and speaking of cruises we think it's about time we had another so watch this space for details....

LOVE IT WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER....

This craft is going to Genova, Italy where it is going to be aboard superyacht "Falcon" and used as a tender.

These colours are a first for Flying Fish and we are sure it will cause attract attention when sailing around the Mediterrenean ocean.

It will be interesting to see if the colour choice catches on!!!!

These 2 identical Orange & Black Snappers are off to Hawkerwood Hovercraft to be used giving rides at shows around the country.

Fitted with uprated engines and loaded onto their purpose built "2 up" trailer these 2 can transported with greatest of ease from venue to venue.

This new fleet of Flying Fish Hovercraft consisting of 3 Snappers and 2 Marlin II craft are off to our sister company in Australia.

The Marlin II's are for customers out there but the Snappers will be used on their corporate site called "The Big Fish", to see more of the fun days they have click the link below.

Thanks to all the guys who came out to play at Sheppey the weekend and made it a fantastic trip. These pictures were taken by Nelson Wood who led the cruise and showed us some amazing sites.

These pictures show it is only the hovercraft that can access these places that no other vehicle can. After a trip from Sheppey Bridge to Harty Ferry then to Faversham Creek then back to the bridge twice totals atleast 35 miles or more.

Then on the Sunday it was a real treat to cruise the Swale River & the Medway River and then back to Queenborough for a nice dinner.

and in the words of one of the cruisers " GOOD TIME, GOOD FUN & GOOD COMPANY"....

If only Scott of the Antarctic had a Flying Fish...

These 2 Marlin II hovercraft have been in the Greenland Ice Cap now for the last 2 springs and have seen it through the harshest of winters seen any where in the world. Fitted with a specially designed (by Flying Fish Hovercraft) "Arctic Pack" these craft can work in temperatures below freezing.

Once they had arrived in Greenland the craft were used for a variety of purposes but mainly to help with the ice surveys being carried out there. Being a truly amphibious vehicle it was only the hovercraft that could complete such a task as when the lakes start to melt in spring the ice is to soft to walk on.

The craft were also used for transportation of equipment and filming as the whole expedition was filmed by the BBC and will feature in a program called Frozen Planet later on this year.

Keep posted for more information coming soon on the Greenland Expedition featuring the Marlin II Flying Fish Hovercraft...
