The hovercraft is not hovering well. What is wrong?
The hovercraft may not be hovering for several reasons. I will list the most common issues. Sometimes the leaf blower you are using is just not powerful enough. If this is the case you can always try shortening the skirt by say 4″ or so. There is not need to cut the skirt but simply loosen the metal stripping and tuck more material in, and retighten. Many times shortening the skirt like this can help. Also be sure to check that all parts of the craft are sealed well that need to be air tight. Any leak can degrade the performance of the skirt. Another common reason for this issue is because the skirt material used is too stiff. A flexible skirt material must be used otherwise performance can deteriorate.
