Jan. 01, 1966 - Thames Demonstration of The Aquaglider. A demonstration took place from Putney Pier, on the Thames, of the Aquaglider, a revolutionary new type of air-cushion craft designed by Mr. Jeremy Fry. It has currently been on show at the International Boat Show. The Aquaglider could revolutionise all forms of water transport - from speedboat to cross-channel ferry. It works on a new principle - not unlike the air-cushion idea of a hovercraft but very much simpler - and is capable of carrying heavy loads at speeds over 30 miles an hour with great economy and comfort

Jan. 01, 1966 - Thames Demonstration of The Aquaglider. A demonstration took place from Putney Pier, on the Thames, of the Aquaglider, a revolutionary new type of air-cushion craft designed by Mr. Jeremy Fry. It has currently been on show at the International Boat Show. The Aquaglider could revolutionise all forms of water transport - from speedboat to cross-channel ferry. It works on a new principle - not unlike the air-cushion idea of a hovercraft but very much simpler - and is capable of carrying heavy loads at speeds over 30 miles an hour with great economy and comfort
