Original Toronto Star caption: Cruising in a hovercraft; Skimming around Whitby harbor; two Toronto water buffs try out a different kind of pleasure craft - a Hovercraft. Derrick Johnson; at the controls; right; bought it last fall and this is the first chance he's had to take if for a spin. The 20-foot craft has three engines; two are used for propulsion and one is used for life; as the craft skims along on a cushion of air; and top speed of 65 smiles an hour. Along for the air-cushioned ride is friend Ron Balsh.
