Last of it's kind

This is a Vietman ( 1970's ) era Hoover craft built for the US Army of the three built this is the last one it just went on display in our new maritime museum.

I did some ps work the lighting was horrible. Please let me what you think.

Looks good to me. Nice Shot

Nice shot of what must have been one crazy apparatus! It seems that they used that conflict as a testing ground for more than it's fair share of military oddities :confused:

Interesting shot Mike. Where is that at? Have you been down to McMinnville to the Evergreen Air Museum where the Spruce Goose and SR-71 are? Nice place to shot planes!

I believe that too about the testing grounds for who knows what. Didn't they have the cruise misiles up and running after this war?

You did a good job on an intresting photo. Where, pray tell, is this maritime museum?

Thank you for all your comments, the museum is in Bellingham WA. it is still in it's infancy it has the hoover craft a river boat ( also one of, if not the last of it's kind ) and then a few other boats built by Uniflite.

Nice shot, but it really doesn't do it for me. I think it's the people in the shot. If you were able to capture the boat in an akward type angle without any people - WITH the current lighting, it might be a better shot. Needless to say, it would have been hard to kick everyone out of the way!!!
