Let's talk paddle boats

[Xtant12]

So I literally just stumbled onto these electric padle boats and want to get one so bad for me and my son. Our lake has a 9hp max limit on boat motors so this would be perfect. Just something to scoot around the lake in. Only problem is, you can't find these things gs anywhere. Its crazy. Walmart, home depot, amazon, overstock, dicks, no one can get them. Its very upsetting. I'm going to keep looking. If anyone comes across one please let me know!

Buy an actual boat. Like an 18-22’ pontoon with a 9.9 on it. So much more useful for absolutely everything.

due to the pandemic anything water sports and outdoors related is really tough to find right now. The market is red hot.

Those pedal boats are pretty MEH honestly. Might be a different story now with the 'rona, but you can usually find them all over marketplace dirt cheap.

Get an actual boat or even a canoe or some shit.

I’ll sell you a toon for next to nothing but you will have to take the 40 hp off and put your 9.9 on it

So I built my own. I bought a old 5 seater from my neighbor who has not used his in 7 years. I cleaned it all up, cut off the rudder and through that shaft I put through the shaft for a 85 thrust trolling motor. I think it worked out pretty well. I sealed the gap with this boat goop and it floats! I went out on the open lake and I loved it!
