Paul,
 Air bubbles under the hull?  Wouldn"t that cause more
 turbulance unless vented in a low pressure location?
 This is an idea that I had thought of for a boat.

 It has been proven to work. Air has less friction than water.

This was the original idea that lead to the hovercraft.

Peter Whitehead.

I loved a ride in the channel hover craft.

I recently rode a smaller one back and fourth from Portsmouth
(South Sea Hoverport) to the Isle of Wight.
