Abstract

This invention relates to a boat that has no propeller or sails, the bottom of the boat is divided into panels to which are fixed various air pipes, which in turn are fed from an air pump stationed at the front of the boat at deck level, the pipes provide a cushion of air on which the boat glides along, thus eliminating most of the friction, and allowing the boat to move faster than an ordinary boat, using the same amount of power. <IMAGE>

This invention relates to a boat that has no propeller or sails, but is driven along by air or wind. The bottom of the boat is divided into eight panels, to which are fixed various air pipes, which are driven by an air pump stationed at the front of the boat. The pipes provide a cushion of air on which the boat glides along, thus eliminating most of the friction and I claim that my boat will go faster than any other boat, using the same amount of power. In addition the walls of the cabin have open ducts and any wind is channelled into pipes which lead into selected panels at the bottom of the boat, so that which ever way the wind is blowing the boat will always move in a forward direction without having to alter any of the open ducts.
