This thesis is the design of a small-scale working model Hovercraft which providing fully Hovercraft basic functions. Basically, the Hovercraft design and fabrication process is quite similar to boat, ship, or aircraft design. In this report, we formulated problems regarding the Hovercraft model & make a list of optimum solutions for this. In designing a hovercraft, there are many factor should be considered, such as skirt design. We have to consider also the materials, structure, thrust, drag, dynamic effect, and stability. This report is aim to provided objective and scope of the research, the literature review study, research methodology, and fabrication process with result analysis and conclusion. Although Hovercraft research and development is still new Technology in Malaysia and no domestic consumption in this technology, but through this project it can help the industry a step further. It is because this project can categorized as successful and working as expected. Test performance was carried out and the prototype was found to meet design expectations giving an air cushi
