ABSTRACT:
The canard balanced marine bicycle is an aquatic vehicle having a long and very narrow hull which depends, for its stability, on the dynamic forces generated by its movement through the water acting on the canard. The canard depends from the bottom of the hull and is movable about its axis by handlebars controlled by the rider. The vehicle is powered by the rider through the manipulation of pedals which drive a propulsion system. The vehicle is guided by a steerable rudder operated by controls located on the handlebars.
