Hovercraft Charity Event

On Saturday 21 February 2009, Warren Secker of Hov Pod Hovercraft Australia, and his family, ran free rides on the Hov Pod, in exchange for a donation to the Victoria Bushfire Appeal.

Take a look at the great images - photos from the event

The Hov Pod flew for almost five hours from 9:30am, in perfect conditions, with no wind and mirror like water, stopping only for fuel. Over 100 smiling people, ranging from an 18 month old little girl to a couple in their 70's had the opportunity to fly across the sand and over the crystal clear water in Raby Bay, experiencing slides and 360 degree spins. Some people even donated twice so they could experience it a second time.

Warren and his family would like to thank the wonderful people who attended, as without their kindness and generosity, they would not have been able to raise almost $600 for the cause.
