For $3k I want to see the propulsion. Is it a cheap 'tourist' mechanism or is it a decent-quality setup? Can you interchange higher-performance parts?
@unitedstatesdale Yes, these boats are available about any where! We drop ship them directly from the factory here in Michigan. If you are interested in seeing a boat, we have an owner/agent who will be able to show you a boat locally. Let us know!
These are really neat but they are kind of expensive for what you get. $3,000 + options is a bit steep. I could really go for one if it was in the $ 2,500 range out the door. I know it's expensive to make stuff and you have to keep the doors open but I just don't see $3,500 + out the door worth here. You could sell many more if you could get the price down. As neat as it is, it falls into the toy category and $3,500 is pretty high for that.
I understand your hesitation due to the price, but it really isn't a toy like other boats similar to it are. It really is a serious watercraft with alternate means of propulsion from conventional crafts. There are many octane free lakes which are large enough to use a boat but too small for a larger electric boat, and that is our niche. Thanks for the comments though! Always good to hear everyone's thoughts!
The narration sounds so seventies.
Those shorts are 80's hahaha!!

Stupid. A regular paddleboat is much cheaper, and gives you better visibility, better portability, everything.

I agree. Nice, but no way I would pay that much. You can find a used regular boat for that price. A 4-5 person pedal boat from $400-1000.

Whatever happened to oars, cheap, simple and efficient...

Of course, using a pair of oars would be out of the question? Simple and efficient. Cheap too...

@tigertonten oars are not nearly as efficient as pedaling.
