You know what ..
Other than the fuel (which is different)
I can remember going to a little amusement park .. they had rides there where you could get in a convertable car .. they'd go down the ramp to the water and propel you across the river to the other side ..
It was a blast to ride this vehicle as kiddies .. (let's see .. that would be .. oh, let's just say decades and decades ago .. )
It was fun to see Hovercraft in use in the Military too ..
Ah .. well .. good for him for figuring out the new fuel to use ..

A Chinese inventor has come up with an incredible new design for a car that will work on tarmac, sand, ice… and even water.
The all-terrain vehicle, which has a top speed of 62mph and works like a hovercraft, can move seamlessly between different surfaces.
Designer Yuhan Zhang, 21, created the spectacular car – called the Volkswagen Aqua – for a competition sponsored by the German car manufacturer.
Concept: The Volkswagen Aqua car would be capable of travelling on road, sand, water and ice
It features a shiny, sleek design with four fans and integrated airbags that inflate to make it hover.
And it’s also environmentally-friendly as its two motors are powered by a hydrogen fuel cell – with zero carbon emissions.
One of the motors inflates a ‘skirt’ around the vehicle to lift it off the ground, while the other drives it forward and controls direction.
