ABSTRACT:
A fluid-cushion-supported pallet or water skate in which the cushion-fluid is generally defined by a multi-part or segmental, flexible skirt, in which the contiguous skirt members have their downwardly and inwardly extending lateral portions flanked by tie portions extending inwardly from the lateral portion toward the space occupied by the fluid-cushion, the contiguous tie portions are secured outwardly of the inner edges to restrict the escape of the cushioning fluid, and the segmental flexible skirt prevents sideways deflection of the skirt segments caused by relative movement between the device and surface over which the device operates.
