Abstract
A watercraft apparatus comprises a rigid platform supporting a seat on an upper surface and a rudder rearward and extending downwardly for providing stability to the apparatus when afloat. A strut extends forward of the platform and supports a propulsion unit mount. A frame is engaged with the strut and extends downwardly for supporting an electrical battery. A toroidal flotation structure is engaged with the strut and the undersurface of the platform for floating the apparatus on a body of water the frame is received within a central aperture of the flotation structure and a bottom cover, integral with the flotation means, closes the center aperture at a lower surface of the flotation structure.
Claims2
Watercraft apparatus comprising:
- a rigid platform supporting a seat on an upper surface thereof;
- a rudder engaged at a rearward end of the platform and extending downwardly for providing stability to the apparatus;
- a strut extending forward of the platform and supporting a propulsion unit mounting means;
- a frame engaged with the strut and extending downwardly therefrom and supporting an electrical battery;
- and a toroidal flotation structure engaged with the strut for floating the apparatus on a body of water, the frame received within a central aperture of the flotation structure, a bottom cover integral with the flotation means and positioned so as to close the center aperture at a lower surface of the flotation structure;
- the rigid platform being hinged for moving between a lowered position in resting contact with the strut, and a raised position for gaining access to the electrical battery.
