Slighty off topic but what the heck...someone in Meredith has a two-seat, Scat 2 - Hovercraft on www.craigslist.org, New Hampshire, w/ a good photo up for sale for $2500...just right for hovering, very noisily, across the slush & too thin ice...to make a successfull approach to that island camp in late March & April.

My eleven-seat, aluminum, war canoe could do it.....here's how....11 people....well.....10 people plus an attorney, all tiptoe across the thin ice carrying the canoe.....if the ice breaks up....everyone hops into the canoe....and starts paddling......hey...don't laugh....canoes is what worked for hundreds or thousands(?) of years for the indians....ie Native Americans...and they did not believe that an indian could own the land...but that the land owned the indian!
