A water craft is disclosed. The water craft has a body portion and at least two water engaging means. The body portion is at least partially suspended above the at least two water engaging means by a suspension system, and locating means are provided to connect each water engaging means to the body portion to permit substantially vertical and pitch direction motions of the water engaging means relative to the body. The suspension system includes at least one front pitch support ram and at least one back pitch support ram, the front and back pitch support rams providing support for at least a portion of the body relative to the at least two water engaging means. The at least one front pitch support ram includes at least a compression chamber forming a front pitch compression volume and the at least one back pitch support ram includes at least a compression chamber forming a back pitch compression volume. The suspension system also includes a body pitch conduit connected between the front pitch compression volume and the back pitch compression volume. The body pitch conduit includes a body pitch device dividing the body pitch conduit into a front body pitch conduit portion and a back body pitch conduit portion, and the body pitch device controls the effective flow of fluid between the body pitch conduit front and back portions.
