| Tonys Turbo Wedge 235 Hovercraft |
 |
| Front view about Jan 2001 Before the Timber was sealed with 2 coats of Timber Tuff Epoxy sealer and the seams fibreglassed, as this shows I have very little room to move around the hover. |
 |
| Fan & Duct The duct has a 750mm 9 blade multiwing fan which I obtained second hand with the motor, I have updated the splitter plate to the later design.The mountain Range. I have since removed 3 blades which has inproved the Thrust but lowered cushion pressure slightly |
| Thank you for visiting my Hovercraft site. It took me ten years to get this craft finished, But very little of that time was actually construction time. I have updated this site a few times and added many new pages also all pictures can be enlarged by clicking on them or Right clicking and open in new Window, Please feel free to contact me with any Questions or comments, and I will try and answer them as best as I can.

| This is what it finally looks like now its completed. The craft is powered by a Fuji Robin 440 Two stroke twin cylinder engine rated at 50 Hp, this runs an intergrated Fan that Supplys lift air as well as the thrust. The Fan is belt driven through a 2:1 reduction drive. |

| Upturned Hull Hull freshly painted first coat only 15-02-2001.
