Bill Baker built his first operational hovercraft in 1973. Bill Baker Vehicles Limited was incorporated in 1978 to supply the growing demand for hovercraft of a similar design to those raced by him in the then infant British hovercraft racing series.

Although we at BBV are justifiably proud of the continued success of our racing hovercraft designs, it is the use of our larger hovercraft used over all forms of terrain which gives the most satisfaction. No other vehicle could do the job as efficiently. hovercraft are supplied by us, or made under licence to our designs, and are used for transport, surveying, pollution monitoring, etc, around the world.

We continue to supply the home builder, and support the hovercraft clubs of the world in their promotion of the sport.
