HOV POD HISTORY

The Hov Pod is manufactured in Southampton, England, by Reaction International Ltd. Our Company founder and Managing Director, Peter Ward, established the company in the year 2000.

As a marine engineer, Peter has travelled to many exotic destinations and pondered the question, "Why has no one exploited hovercraft technology for the marine leisure industry?" After years of market research, Peter concluded that although there were many racing craft available, no one had designed a craft to meet the exacting standards demanded by the marine leisure market.

Marine leisure buyers demand safety, ease of use, durability, reliability and they have come to expect a dealer network capable of providing on-going sales and technical support.

The personal watercraft market is huge by comparison to hovercraft. Peter set out to design a craft capable of addressing all of the known problems associated with hovercraft. For example, the perception that all hovercraft are noisy, difficult to control, known to stop suddenly on water, (known as ploughing in), and when they do stop on water, occasionally they sink!

Not only would his design need to overcome these challenges in order to meet strict safety standards, he also wanted the craft to look as good, if not better than personal watercraft. To reach this aim, he contracted a specialist top quality boat manufacturer to do the Glass Fibre construction on the Hov Pod. By September 2002, the first craft were ready for launch at the Southampton International Boat Show, and they took the world by storm.

Television companies lined up to conduct interviews and test drive the Hov Pod. Lines formed as hundreds of people wanted to experience the Hov Pod ride. Leading magazines and National newspapers began to feature the Hov Pod. Film companies featured the Hov Pod in science fiction and adventure movies, TV footage was syndicated around the world.

Reaction International Ltd are now busy building an international network of dealers to provide sales and technical support. They have received orders from as far away as Australia, South Africa and the Middle East. The Hov Pod is testimony to the fact that if you can invent or develop a new product that fits a niche market, the world will beat a path to your door. This is evident by the growing demand of export orders received by the company. With our history lesson finished, lets move on to "Ploughing-in"
