APPLICATIONS >> COMMERCIAL

The main benefits of Griffon hovercraft for the commercial role are: the ability to travel at high speed over a wide variety of surfaces; the reliability and low maintenance of the modern diesel engine; the simplicity but ruggedness of construction; the ease of operation and maintenance; the high degree of manoeuvrability; and the capability of fitting the craft out in a wide variety of configurations.

PASSENGER FERRY

Conventional boats often have to slow down on waterways because of the amount of wash or wake they produce at high speed. Griffon produce virtually no wash or wake at high speed, so journey times are much reduced. Hovercraft can travel on rivers etc which are unnavigable by boat, opening services which before were unimaginable.
