The Pedal Boat was the first of David’s boats back in the ‘50s and it is the first offering of Dad’s Boats. Our Elite Pedal Boat is a high quality, safe product.
Great care is taken at every stage of production to ensure that the boat reaches you in tip top condition.
The benefits of using The Elite Pedal Boat include; it’s good exercise, it’s good for the environment, it’s quiet and sociable. You will be surprised at how easy it is to pedal.
With little effort you can travel through the water at a good speed.
We would always recommend that you come and try The Elite Pedal Boat for yourself.
The Elite Pedal Boat is designed for inland, non tidal, flat waters only.
Two people sit facing each other in the boat and are both able to pedal in a forward direction.
The sophisticated gearbox assembly transmits the power through to the propshaft via the chain drives.
The person facing the bow steers the vessel (of course!) with an upright tiller.
Push the tiller forward for left, and pull it backwards for right.
The seats move forwards and backwards to adjust to your leg length.
The Elite Pedal Boat is hand made by skilled craftsmen in Norfolk, England. The hull, deck and floor pan are made of fibreglass and have a gel finish.
The coaming, rubbing strakes and tiller are made of timber and are varnished.
The gearbox is made of aluminium with stainless steel shafts.
The prop shaft, stern tube, P bracket, rudder and pedal unit frame are all made in marine grade stainless steel with water lubricated acetal bearings in some parts.
The bicycle parts are constructed of various alloys but are not made by Dad’s Boats. Antifouling is applied to the underside of the boat as standard.
The bottom of the boat is flat giving excellent stability. Stainless steel fixings are used throughout.
At Dad’s Boats we aim to have a Pedal Boat or two in hand for those who want one now! However there may be a waiting list.
