Flarecrafts are a type of hybrid watercraft that combine the buoyancy of a boat with the lift of an aircraft. There are several other terms used to describe this type of vehicle, including airboats, hovercrafts, and ground effect vehicles. Airboats are similar to flarecrafts in that they also ride on a cushion of air, but they do not have wings or lift like an aircraft. Hovercrafts, on the other hand, use fans to create lift instead of wings. Ground effect vehicles are another type of lift-based craft that fly close to the ground to use the ground effect to gain lift, similar to flarecrafts. Regardless of the term used, all of these vehicles offer a unique and thrilling ride experience.
