The hovercraft type of craft has been experimented by USCG in the years 60. Now, 72° Stormo Company brings you a small, fast, SAR oriented craft to be used on waters and lands of SL. Equipped with the already known main engine script, it glides over surfaces, climbs moderately steep inclines, rezzes inflatable rafts and liferings, lowers a climbing grate to rescue survivors from the seas. Customizable paintings, f.p. templates provided.

I really wanted to like this

It has a lovely 1960s look t0 it, like the Saunders-Roe hovercraft of that era, and it has all sorts of nice detail.
But...
Every time I've used it, it rubber-bands badly enough to cause a touch of motion sickness. It doesn't handle sim crossings very well, and if you catch a corner you're just as likely to end up under water. And while you get a few textures to customize it, you daren't touch ANYTHING else. Adding or subtracting any parts will cause all sorts of bizarre behavior.
For what it cost I expected something rather better. Definitely disappointed.
