Adventureglass Paddleboats

Our paddleboats are of very high quality. The cranks are made of heavy duty steel or also available made of stainless steel. The paddlewheel is made of aluminum, direct driven and mounted on heavy ball bearings. We use an 8-blade direct driven aluminum paddlewheel that is welded together with side supports almost the same diameter as the paddles. This makes the paddlewheel very strong. The rudder folds for less risk of damage. We use only highest quality fiberglass with the color in the fiberglass for extra low maintenance. The Paddleboats can be fitted with electric motor. Or get stainless steel cranks and linkage. Or choose from our many options to customize the paddleboat for your needs. The head is bolted on for easy removal for storage and transportation.
