- Americana has stepped into the world of ACV's! This is a serious world where the winners are chosen by sacrificial loss, blood, sweat and tears. Just kidding, but seriously this is a COOL FIND! i believe its a 1987 scat 2 hovercraft, from a simpler more prosperous time in America, when we were worried about two things, recreation and bada$$ery.

Your channel has the most interesting barn finds and most importantly, buys!
Lol thanks we do tend to find some obscure vehicles!
Those things are so cool, I wonder if you can ride them in the snow ❄️🌨️
They go on water i dont wee why they wouldnt be great on snow. Thanks for watching!
SCATS use to be a reasonable price to get into Hovercraft (I am old with 30+ years in Hovercraft) I never owned one always have homebuilts, but have "piloted a few" I couldn't get use to single engine setups having to be on the throttle for lift, but to each their own. Welcome to an interesting hobby (many don't have the grit to stick with so time will tell... if you don't mind tinkering). They use to sell a trailer with a "swinging tilt bed" so you wouldn't be fighting the thrust to fly off the trailer.
Ya i would imagine dual engine would make more sense, but the scat design i think was great for mass production Thanks for watching!
It won’t hover on the trailer because the trailer has holes underneath letting the air go down the trailer instead of the skirt. You can hover on the ground for sure with missing a skirts.
Oh ya true, skirts have been ordered so stay tuned! Thanks for watching
Badazz dude!
Thats what i thought!
Lmao the hair in the wind
lol best way to show the air speed
Can you get a new skirt for the thing?
yes they make them, i found some on ebay, i think they were about 400 bucks.
