palmtreepathos Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Tis the season to dream of aqua adventures! This is a video clip of a homemade craft.... this one is really nice but only for use off of another craft or a dock.. there is too much keel for bayous or sand landings I would think... it's cost? about $2400 Also, there is a side by side seater with a little bit more length. I hear folks take the seats out to makeshift some kind of berth..YouTube - Unique Pedal Boats by Nauticraft this one is my choice.. and this is just an amazing adventure! Quote

DFINITLYDISTRUBD Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 building a better single person craft! YouTube - Inside AlinghiWhat that thing needs is a couple of bullet shaped mini-hulls at each side of the platform...each just large enough to prevent each side from digging in to the surf and acting as brakes. Of course splitting the rear foil locating half at each side at the rear and making them adjustable would provide more stability (increase lift on down side decrease lift on the up...more stability with an additional benefit of reduced drag on the side with the reduced lift).
