Hovercraft for Norway - Winter Use

Our latest shipment will assist our customer Bjorn to reach holiday homes in winter to carry out routine maintenance for his customers. Bjorn visited us with his engineer brother in law to see for himself how the HDPE hull and polyurethane / nylon skirts might stand up to a Norweigen winter. Recently in USA, 3 people almost died of hypothermia when their glass fibre hull cracked on the ice and allowed freezing water to flood the air chambers and cause water ingression - the Hov Pod is made of stronger hull and skirts. Bjorn is so delighted with the Hov Pod, he has agreed to become a customer referrer to promote the Hov Pod in Norway through his own website - http://www.hovercraftnorge.no   - word of mouth endorsement is the best form of advertising.
