It looks pretty complicated to me. What do we need to skim the ponds for anyway? Ohhhhhh wait...is it just a form of transportation?
In that case, I'll have to readjust my thinking.

Click on the manufacturers link below the photo. Then click on video to the right of the picture on that link. There are 3 separate videos to watch.
Yes, I have cruised the pond on it and what a blast. You can get up to 17 MPH on it and it uses 0 MPG to run it!

Only the cost of a decent bicycle too. I'd definately use one on Sebec. They look like fun and good exercise. Maybe someone will rent them?
