Hov Pod

In response to a letter I sent to the good people over at Hov Pod in the UK - If anyone is interested in attaining a Hov Pod, go thru Hov Pod's US distribution in North Palm Beach, Florida. Info below - ( I had to edit the letter, but it was mainly tech specs in regards to some questions I had regarding the craft in open oceanic adventures and games)

Dear Gobi Mcbaxgwain,
Thanks for your interest in the Hov Pod. Our assembly factory is based in Southampton, England. Distribution of the Hov Pod in the USA is handled by Ideal Recreations, LLC. based in North Palm Beach, Florida.

I visited your Blog and now understand how our Hov Pod design fits the Gobi standard. The Hov Pod is designed for conditions up to Force 4 so heavy surf would be too rough for the craft. Depending on engine, one tank of fuel could deliver a range of up to 3 hours per tank. Feel free to borrow images from our website www.hovpod.com to draw comparisons of the Hov Pod to a Gobi. You have got me thinking about Gobis now, sure I can think of more comparisons.

Ideal Recreations are currently establishing dealers throughout the US, though clearly this may take some time to ensure national coverage. See link to recent demo of the Hov Pod in West Palm Beach area - http://www.wptv.com/news/local/story.aspx?content_id=55a44883-09eb-41e5-9c1e-3fb6de8b3d9a

For further details regarding demonstration or reseller opportunities, please contact Jim Verri at Ideal Recreations, via email at hovpod@idealrecreations.com. Jim's telephone number is (561)385-5230 He will be able to answer all your questions on pricing, shipping, delivery time, engines, options etc.

We are in the process of redesigning our website to make it more user friendly, and easier to navigate. For videos, please see http://www.youtube.com/group/hovercraft

We're trying to get hip to the wonderful world of GOBI but we need guidance, we demand more regular posts or at least some handy hints.

We feel sure GOBI is all around us

"fishman is based on the true story of a man with an acquired brain injury who was fascinated, passionate and preoccupied with fish. A performer in his own private world, 'John' constructed fish suits that he wore to play around the dams and lakes of the Wimmera. Prototypes were intricately constructed out of plastics and vinyls, with the final suit machine-sewed, complete with a tail. No one bothered John as he went about enacting his private and inexplicable preoccupation with fish. As one local commented, 'he was invisible until he died'."
