Watercycle for wet rider

A watercycle wherein portion of the body of a rider, below the head is underwater comprising:

• a) a frame including a pair of substantially parallel runners for resting said watercycle on a solid surface and having on the front ends thereof upwardly bent portion and being connected together by a transverse member, and a pair of elevated, substantially parallel portions with front ends bent downwardly and connecting said runners immediately behind said upwardly bent portions, and the rear ends of said elevated portions bent downwardly and connecting the rear ends of said runners
• b) a generally do-nut shape, highly buoyant float member suitably mounted onto said frame for floating said watercycle and said rider thereof;
• c) twin beam disposed longitudinally horizontally between said pair of runners and pair of elevated portions, said twin beam for supporting a rider's seat, steering column and swivel arm thereof;
• d) plurality of arches connected transversely apart along the intermediate portion of said pair of runners, for supporting said twin beam;
• e) a seat supported by said twin beam adjustable vertically for desired submergence depth of a rider in the water, and horizontally by suitably sliding said seat along said twin beam for convenient reach to the pedals, said seat adjustable vertically by appropriately rotating thereof;
• f) plurality of pulleys including first and second pulleys fixedly attached respectively to the lower portions of said steering column and said swivel arm, and further including a third pulley disposed rotatably underneath said twin beam between said first and second pulleys, said swivel arm being connected to a swivelable C-frame supporting said propeller unit, by linkage rod thereof;
• g) a pedal unit having shaft on either side extended outwardly and rotatably supported intermediate the downwardly bent front ends of said elevated portion, said pedal unit shaft adapted to communicate with means transforming a relatively low rpm pedal unit input into higher rpm propeller unit output;
• h) propeller unit means mounted and arranged for propelling and for steering said watercycle;
• i) means translating steering movement from handlebar to steerable propeller unit includes hitching of actuating cord having its front portion between said first and third pulleys hitched in parallel pattern, and the rear portion of said cord between said second and third pulleys hitched in figure “8” pattern whereby when the handlebar is manipulated for steering the watercycle, said swivel arm will inapart swivel movement to said propeller unit by actuation of said linkage rod.
