Abstract

To reduce the amount of water or other surface material issuing at the periphery of an air cushion vehicle, a flexible barrier 16 is suspended at the vehicle periphery lateral to the cushion containing means - usually a flexible skirt 18. The spray or other material is trapped between the vehicle periphery and the barrier, with water or other material dropping down and air venting through apertures 20 at the top of the barrier. Weight 21 is added to the lower part of the barrier to assist in maintaining the barrier down. <IMAGE>
