ABSTRACT:
A highly maneuverable, efficient boat having a bow-mounted propeller drive with a forwardly directed propeller for pulling the boat through the water. The forwardly directed propeller holds its own course so that the user does not have to steer except to change direction. The bow-mounted propeller is pivoted to change the direction of travel of the boat via a pair of foot-actuated steering pedals. Actuation of both pedals simultaneously causes the propeller drive to tilt back and be raised out of the water.
