One of the many reasons I don't like those folks at Rinpoop much. They do NOT understand design, although they might do something less offensive at times.

Hovercraft are amphibious, meaning via a flat plane/ramp one can fly up into the bed of a truck or top of snowmobile trailer. Also the small ones are light enough that 2-3 people can lift one on to a trailer/bed top or even car roof.

There would never be a need for a hoist or crane , unless of course your desire is to express pure ignorance - or maybe "let's be different to add complexity".
