This is a SunRider2 hovercraft built by Hovercraft Inc. in Orlando, Florida probably in the early '70s. I bought it from a
fellow named Bob Dumbauld in Illinois. It came with the homemade trailer. Bob was kind enough to re-wire, re-pack the wheel
bearings and install new tires on the trailer since he knew that I was coming from Michigan. The craft itself came with nothing
but the hull, thrust duct, rudders, fan guards, gauges and wiring. This is the start of a very long project.
I am going to document the project step by step, and when it's done, my adventures...and misadventures, which I'm sure there
will be lots of.
