If you’re looking for a pedal boat to keep at your second cabin or aboard your yacht then we’re are in different boats. My first pedal boat was a significant expense and one that I wanted to care for and keep for years. To a large extent, because I couldn’t afford to replace it at …
Whenever I look at used pedal boats for sale I find tons of boats that have been sitting in someone’s yard or garage for several years because they have a simple problem. This should never happen! Pedal boat parts are easy to come by and the boats themselves are easy to work on and repair. …
I’ve owned a few pedal boats over the years and I’m still amazed at how slow they go. Maybe that’s mostly on me and my lack of leg muscle but, then again, no one else seems to be passing me on the lake. However, they are so much fun to use that I just can’t …
