Ultimate Hovercraft
The Griffon 12000TD hovercraft seems to defy gravity as it skims over sea, sand and rock at speeds of up to 50 mph. Running up to 80 passengers across the crowded shipping lanes between Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight it must dodge giant cruise ships, heavy cargo traffic and the fastest racing yachts in the world to stay on schedule. Blowing this one-of-a-kind machine apart with CGI reveals a slew of innovative materials and unique engineering features– from the world’s longest carbon fan belts to twin engines each more powerful than a formula one car.
