You can go CC - it has been over 2 hours

It's like the 4th time that answer was given. Must be a famous ship, I guess?

Here's a video of her coming in to dock a bit too sharp in Ushuaia..

Name of this ship, built in 1924, known as The Great White Steamer..
Provided passenger service between Los Angeles and Santa Catalina Island from 1924-1975..
Here's a rather nice tribute: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtsNh5xvfNo

hmm... SS Catalina?

the youtube link was a bit of a giveaway...

I'll post a question now, in case I was right, and I'll try to answer it this afternoon...

What is the name of this hovercraft, and what class would it have become if it was used commercially?

saltydog · « **Reply #5858 on:** February 09, 2010, 12:12:11 »

Sounds like one for SuperHoverGuy..

McGherkin · « **Reply #5859 on:** February 09, 2010, 12:15:03 »

I am Super Hover Guy... if there's anything I don't know about hovercraft, it isn't worth knowing...

Still, I can't answer my own questions!

saltydog · « **Reply #5860 on:** February 09, 2010, 12:35:27 »

Looks a bit like the BH7..

correct! But what would it's commercial name have been? Hint: **-**

saltydog · « **Reply #5862 on:** February 09, 2010, 13:04:41 »

A wild guess: the SR.N7..?

McGherkin · « **Reply #5863 on:** February 09, 2010, 13:07:09 »

Yep! Your go, SD! I guess next time I need to think up a super hard one

saltydog · « **Reply #5864 on:** February 09, 2010, 13:12:02 »

I can think of someone who would enjoy that..

saltydog · « **Reply #5865 on:** February 09, 2010, 15:40:48 »

Name of this hovercraft..?
(granddaddy of production hc's)

McGherkin · « **Reply #5866 on:** February 09, 2010, 16:00:59 »

You asked that 3 pages ago (but deleted the post when I couldn't post a new one)

You described it as the Model T of hovercraft and the image was from the hovercraft museum's website.

Hover Hawk...

saltydog · « **Reply #5867 on:** February 09, 2010, 16:05:53 »

So I did..And yes, it's the Hoverhawk..

McGherkin · « **Reply #5868 on:** February 09, 2010, 16:16:12 »

so it's still your go

saltydog · « **Reply #5869 on:** February 09, 2010, 17:05:58 »

Ok, anyone to go..

I meant it had been over 2 hours since the previous question (the 2 hour rule)

You should always do your homework
